The NI Music Prize has announced that it will be broadcasting its ceremony and live show online this year for obvious reasons.

The stream will be broadcast from the Oh Yeah Music Centre on Thursday November 12th at 8pm.

The show will feature live performances from Arborist, Careerist, Joshua Burnside, Kitt Philippa, Phil Kieran and Sasha Samara. 

Rigsy (DJ & Broadcaster) and Gemma Bradley (Presenter, BBC ATL Introducing) will present the show and their guest contributors, with live announcements and presentations as well as some previously unseen footage including the Snow Patrol performance from last year’s event at the Ulster Hall. 

The awards include Best Album supported by PPL, Best Single supported by Help Musicians, the Oh Yeah Contender Award in association with ATL Introducing and Best Live Act.

The winners of three categories will be awarded a cash prize of £1,000 and £3,000 will go to the winner of Best Album. A panel will decide Best Album on Nov 12th and voting is now open to the public for the other three shortlists. Voting closes on Nov 11th at midnight.
