The San Diego Music Awards[1] are an awards show held annually in San Diego, California, United States, to recognize the best bands and artists in local music. The awards show benefits the San Diego Music Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting San Diego music education programs. Over the years the show has featured awards in a variety of categories covering nearly every genre of music, and featured live performances by such major-label recording artists as Blink-182, Switchfoot,[2] and Jason Mraz,[3] P.O.D.[4] as well as lesser known up-and-coming artists, such as Schizophonics, Trouble in the Wind, Gilbert Castellanos, Whitney Shay and others.
Through 2019, the annual awards have raised $615,317 for its Taylor Guitars for Schools program, which has provided free instruments and lessons for more than 57,200 students across San Diego County over the past three decades.[5]
