“In the midst of everything we are experiencing, I am very happy to promote an award show that celebrates artists and music, our escape and everyday comfort, without prejudice to genres and styles,” Quem’s editor in chief, Danilo Saraiva, said in a statement. “For this, we are preparing a beautiful, safe, fun and digital event for people to enjoy at home.”
Jonas Vilandez, manager of music business, Radio Globo added: “Celebrating music never hurts. Recognizing the artists who help make our programming, and even at the hands of our listeners, is a huge pleasure. We hope this will be the first edition of many.”
Presented by Smirnoff and Tanqueray, the awards show will not only feature live and in-studio presentations, but also a red carpet with the nominated artists. Radio Globo Quem Awards are scheduled for June 23 via livestream across Quem and Radio Globo’s social accounts.
