As a volunteer-run nonprofit organization, we rely on our generous community members donating their time to help bring this event to life. Take a look below to learn more about some of the roles we need for this coming year!

Bring the excitement, bring the laughs, and bring our live award show to life as the host of the 2nd Annual PNW Music Awards! We are looking for a dynamic, charismatic, and ecstatic emcee to guide us through the evening. Our host will be responsible for directing the flow of the evening onstage by introducing all performers and award presenters, and breaking the monotony with small snippits of jokes relevant to the Northwest music community. Previous standup experience is highly encouraged, and a strong comfortability on stage and in front of a large crowd is a must.

Please include a link to clip of a stand up routine, crowd work, emcee gig, or similar showcase of ability in your email.

Live Award Show HOst

Statuette Presenter

Be a part of celebrating local music by joining our presenters and winners on stage for some of the most exciting moments of the night. Rotate with the other statuette presenters and bring the given category’s golden microphone trophy on stage to pass to the award presenter before they give it to the winner! Statuette presenters will want to dress to the 9’s and be able to read small text in low lighting to ensure delivery of the correct award for each category.

Usher

Welcome and greet all incoming attendees and their guests to the live show, ensure all arrivals have a program book, and assist them to their assigned seats. Usher’s will help ensure a smooth start to the event and are welcome to enjoy the rest of the show once it begins.

Help us capture the magic of our live award show by recording vertical video clips of each performance and award for use on social media. You’ll receive two front-row tickets to the 2nd Annual PNW Music Awards Live Award show in Portland this November for you and a guest, and in return you’ll use one of our organization’s iPhones to capture the evening. Portfolio of captured performances for social media a plus!
