Jack Awards

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Jack Awards are a set of popularly-voted Australian music awards, sponsored by Tennessee whiskey company Jack Daniel's. The awards were conceived by Damien Wilson, former creative director of Peer Group Media to create a national platform that rewarded all areas of Australian live music, from bands to venues, tour art to guitarists and drummers rather than recorded releases.

The nominees for each of the awards are selected by a panel of over 60 judges from the music industry including publishers, label A&R, promoters, radio DJs, music media and managers nationally.

The awards are based on an online voting system. Voters, or "punters" as they are called[citation needed] by the organisers, vote over the internet or by SMS for their favourite musicians, bands, live venues, photographers, tour artwork and the Gentleman Jack award for services to Australian live music.

The Jack Awards began in 2004, and are broadcast on pay TV channel Channel [V] Australia.
