Hall of Fame

Every October, we celebrate the best of Modesto music at the Annual MAMA Awards. You can check out the history of these dynomite winners. Check out the MAMA Hall of Fame. You can see who has been making the musical contribution to Modesto over the years. MAMA is all about diversity. If a band wins a MAMA, they are added to the Hall of Fame. They are not elegible for nomination for two years, so learn some more about this years nominees and your previous favorites will be back in the running soon. Listen to local music and spread the love. Check out the MAMA page on facebook.com/modestoareamusic

Past MAMA Award shows have been held at The State Theatre, Fat Cat, the Gallo Center and Club Maxx. The MAMAs are held this year in the Doubletree Ballroom. There have been some great performances, some big surprises and best of all, the MAMAs are a night that is shared by all of the radio stations and the Modesto Bee with the best of the Modesto Area performers.
