Some local luminaries win so many Madison Area Music Awards the organization had to create another level of honor: a hall of fame. This event celebrates The Jimmys, The Gomers, Natty Nation, radio DJ Gabby Parsons, and rock queen Cathy Dethmers. Comedians Craig Smith, Will Isenberg, Orville Fettkerl, Cynthia Marie and Charlie Kojis will roast the honorees, and the musicians will perform and mix it up at the end.

press release: The Madison Area Music Association is proud to announce the establishment of the MAMA Hall of Fame. We are also proud to announce that the first-ever MAMA Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony and Comedy Roast will take place at the High Noon Saloon Sunday, October 13, 7-9:30 pm. Suggested Donation $10. 

Please Note: Any media personnel who identify themselves at the door will be allowed in.

Yes, you read that right; we are not only going to honor our inductees, we will be roasting them with local comedians.

Performing:  The Jimmys, Natty Nation and the Gomers. The three groups will mix it up and jam at the end of the program.

Comedians: Craig Smith, Will Isenberg, Orville Fettkerl, Cynthia Marie and Charlie Kojis

For some time now, the MAMA organization has been kicking this idea around and we finally insisted that this is the year. Eligible inductees include those who have won a MAMA Award in any single category for five years. The inductees are no longer eligible in that category but remain eligible in all other categories.

Over the course of sixteen awards shows there are currently nine eligible inductees.

The MAMA Hall of Fame Class of 2019 will include:

Jimmy Voegeli - _________

The Jimmys – Blues Performer

The Gomers – Cover Band

Natty Nation – World Performer

Gabby Parsons – Local Music Radio Personality

Cathy Dethmers – Honorary Inductee
