Congratulations To The WINNERS of the 2013 RightOutTV Music & Video Awards!

The Third Annual RightOutTV Music & Videos Awards proudly announces this year’s winners in 18 categories that are brimming with talent from the LGBTI global music community

A panel of 38 celebrity and entertainment industry judges made the hard choices and their top picks hail from Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States.

 

“If you watch the awards show you’ll see that we don’t just promote and award these artists because they’re gay. These are high-level, multi-talented, professionals with star quality,” says Marlee Walchuk, co-producer of the awards. “Even though most of these artists are not being heard on mainstream radio yet, they deserve every success enjoyed by their straight counterparts.”

NASTAIJ , an Australian artist, who  won the award for BEST HIP HOP or R&B SONG

“The winners will receive a good deal of press, a beautiful engraved glass art statue and bragging rights for life!” quips Tully Callender, the other half of the production team. “We are also excited to start featuring all of the artists on our LGBTI promotional site, RightOutTV.com”

The RightOutTV Music and Video Awards is an offshoot of the free LGBTI artist promotional site at RightOutTV.com. Walchuk and Callender of the music duo Sugarbeach launched RightOutTV in November 2010 after realizing there were few places to release their own queer-messaged music videos. The women – married to each other – also saw a need for more unity in the global LGBTI music community. RightOutTV was created as a vehicle to serve both these purposes and to provide a fully developed promotional website and for artists who deserve more credit for being Out and proud with their music.
