Jackson Browne to be Honored with Les Paul Innovation Award at the NAMM TEC Awards

Christian Wissmuller • Supplier Scene • December 20, 2017

The NAMM Foundation has announced that singer-songwriter Jackson Browne will receive the prestigious Les Paul Innovation Award at the 33rd Annual NAMM Technical Excellence & Creativity Awards (NAMM TEC Awards), on Saturday, January 27, 2018 in Anaheim, California.

The award is given on behalf of the Les Paul Foundation to honor individuals that have set the highest standards of excellence in the creative application of recording technology in the spirit of the famed audio pioneer, inventor and musician, Les Paul.

“Jackson Browne’s success as a singer, songwriter and guitarist has had a prolific impression on the music industry throughout his successful career,” said Michael Braunstein, executive director of the Les Paul Foundation. “Like Les Paul, Jackson has never shied away from expressing his emotions or thoughts through his music. I have no doubt that Les would have liked to share a few jams with Jackson along the way.”

The Section will also be honored during the evening event as the newest inductees to the NAMM TEC Hall of Fame.

Tickets can be purchased for $65 (general admission) or $195 (VIP). The show begins with a VIP-only reception at 6 p.m., followed by the awards ceremony at 7 p.m., held in the Hilton Anaheim Hotel’s Pacific Ballroom.
