The Native American Music Awards (NAMA), commonly known as the Nammys, are an awards program presented annually by The Native American Music Association & Awards, which recognizes outstanding musical achievement among Native Americans. The awards were created in 1998 to offer Native American musicians in the music industry greater exposure and opportunities for mainstream recognition. This year’s Nammys will be held on November 12, 2010 at the Seneca Niagara Hotel in Niagara Falls, NY.
In addition to the Nammys, Fish was nominated for his 17th Emmy Award earlier this year for his work on the PBS Series “Moment of Luxury”.
