Date is estimated. The actual date is set a few weeks before the event. The Detroit Music Awards Foundation (DMAF) was chartered in 1988 by a distinguished group of Detroit music and media professionals. The fledgling group held its first award show in 1992 at Detroit's Music Hall and moved to the State Theatre, its present location, in 1993.
In 1998, the organization merged with the Metro Times-sponsored Detroit Music Awards. Now, the Detroit Music Awards Foundation is a single entity presenting the Detroit Music Awards each spring. In 2005, the ceremony was the opening event for the Motor City Music Conference (MC2) debut.
DMAF awards are similar to the Grammy Awards presented by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences. Winners are determined by local musicians and music industry professionals in southeast Michigan and offered in ten music genres; Folk/Acoustic, Blues, Jazz, Gospel, Country, Classical, Rock/Pop, R&B/Hip-Hop, Electronic, and World.
The DMA is the only local music award in the nation to be presented by a not-for-profit organization. Voting is via the internet.
