NAMM and Timeless Communications, publisher of MMR, Projection Lights & Staging News (PLSN), Front of House (FOH), and Stage Directions have formed an alliance to serve the live event production community at the 2018 NAMM Show, bringing its awards for the live production community, The Parnelli Awards to the show. 

“With our shared passion for music, we believe that the live event and production professionals are kindred spirits with the manufacturer, distributor and retail members of NAMM,” said Joe Lamond, president and CEO of NAMM. “And at the Awards, we could not be more excited to celebrate the accomplishments and contributions of the many live production professionals and companies. We look forward to welcoming this community to share in the career enhancing networking and education opportunities, and of course, to experience the amazing new sound and lighting product introductions on The NAMM Show floor.”

The annual Parnelli Awards recognise pioneering, influential professionals and companies, and their contributions to the live production industry. Founded in 2001 and named after industry luminary Rick “Parnelli” O’Brien, the awards bring together the live entertainment community to recognise the best-in-class across 22 different categories such as Lighting Designer of the Year, Sound Company of the Year, and Rigging Company of the Year, and the coveted Lifetime Achievement, Visionary, and Audio Innovator awards. Past recipients include Greg Mackie (Mackie Designs, LOUD Technologies), Richard Fernandez (tour manager for The Eagles, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, etc.) Danny O’Bryen (Screenworks co-founder), John Meyer (Meyer Sound Laboratories), Pat Quilter (QSC Founder/Quilter Amps), and many others. Notable musicians, includingf Tom Petty, Brooks & Dunn, Kenny Chesney, Todd Rundgren, Paul Anka, Adrian Belew, and others have also participated in the awards to honour the professionals who make live production possible. 

The awards will relocate to The NAMM Show from Las Vegas and will be held on Friday 26th January at the Anaheim Hilton Hotel.

“Finally, the entire performance/production community will be together under one roof,” remarked Terry Lowe, president of Timeless Communications. “We are committing all our resources behind this to ensure this partnership’s success. And this is an especially great move for the Parnelli Awards. As we’ve watched it grow in stature and prestige over the years, we’ve known it deserves a more fitting place, and there is no other than NAMM. This move allows us to take the show to the next level.”
