For the inaugural INDIE50 Awards, a new award celebrating the talent that lies in the independent music community, an open, public nomination phase was followed up by the Award\u2019s judging panel (which included the likes of BBC 6 Music\u2019s Tom Ravenscroft and Pitchfork\u2019s Laura Snapes) to pick the final 50. The result is a group of diverse music industry heroes; 50 people that\u00a0keep the cogs of the\u00a0British independent music industry turning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Award doesn\u2019t just cover bookers and promoters, artist managers, journalists, festival organisers and even a Bristol local celebrity named Big Jeff (famed for his superhuman commitment to gig-going) made the INDIE50. Among those honoured is Camille Rearden, an independent promoter, Craig Johnston, booker at King Tuts in Glasgow, Julian Deacon, founder of Raygun Management and Kate Hewett, booker at both The Harley and Tramlines Festival. Dave Newton, co-founder at WeGotTickets, the company behind the award said, \u201cwe started out in 2000 as a small ticketing company working on local gigs in Oxford. We now work with thousands of venues and promoters across the UK, and we\u2019ve seen first hand, time and time again, the effect that certain individuals can have on a local scene. INDIE50 is all about celebrating those people and giving them some recognition on a national level.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Along with the INDIE50 Awards, 1st September will see the INDIE50 photographic exhibition launch. Commissioned to shoot each of the INDIE50, music photographer Dan Wilton travelled the country with journalist Josh Jones to photograph the people that make up the core of\u00a0Britain\u2019s wonderful independent music industry. All shot on 35mm film, the images capture the energy and passion of the INDIE50. The exhibition will also be accompanied by a limited edition zine produced by journalist Josh Jones, featuring interviews with the INDIE50.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a
