Organised by Westline Entertainment, a subsidiary of Westline Consult Limited, the 7th edition of Western Music Awards is themed ‘This is Music.’
In a nominee’s announcement which was broadcast on Westline TV on Youtube, the head of Public Relations of Western Music Awards, Nana Kwesi Coomson mentioned that “there are a total of 30 categories this year. We have introduced the Unsung category which focuses on the Senior High School talents.”
“This category is to discover the music talents early from the Senior High Schools, so we brought on board Entertainment Masters of selected SHSs in the Western Region to nominate their best talents to represent them. This will ensure that we give such talents support early and introduce them to an audience where they will not struggle after school” Mr. Coomson added.
