From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Online Music Awards was a UK-based awards ceremony for unsigned musicians which initially took place in 2011, and again in 2012. The awards were intended to take place annually with nominees, voting and winners announcements taking place on the Online Music Awards social network. The original headline sponsor was St Helier Cider. The awards briefly returned in 2015 but were cancelled within the second month of nominations. It's currently unclear if they will return at a later date.
