The 2010 Platinum Vinyl Awards: General Field Minor Awards

The Dove Awards are over, and suddenly I don't feel so bad about not being able to make a decision a few times. I'm only one person, they have a committee. And they still have two ties? We move on to the General Field with some minor awards.
  • Comeback Artist of The Year: Jennifer Knapp
  • Lifetime Achievement Award: Michael W. Smith
  • The Night Beat DJ's Choice Award: Apocalyptica - Given to a Clean Secular Release worthy to receive widespread Christian airplay.
  • The Night Beat Fallen Award: Jennifer Knapp - Awarded to a Christian artist who, despite, or because of a Controversy in the Christian Music Industry, has had a successful release. Named for the Debut Release by Evanescence, which, despite getting "Kicked out of the Kingdom", has sold over Seven Million Copies in the United States and is 7x Platinum 
  • The Night Beat CROSS/over Award: Evolett - Given to a Christian Band with high Crossover potential.
  • The Night Beat Keaggy Award: Lincoln Brewster - Given to a supremely talented guitarist 
Next up: Male Vocalist of the Year at 9:45
