MAM Celebrates 2015 AMP Awards for Music and Sound
On Cinco de Mayo, MAM joined in celebrating the annual AMP Awards for Music and Sound at City Winery in Manhattan. We schmoozed with friends and colleagues, and got to see several of our talented clients get recognized for their wonderful work.
This is the third year AMP has recognized and celebrated musicians’ work and contributions within the advertising world.
We were so excited to see our MAM-Fam get in on the awards love!
