The event will take place October 1 at the 2015 Radio Show, held September 29-October 2 in Atlanta and produced by the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) and the Radio Advertising Bureau (RAB).
“Gavin DeGraw’s numerous chart-topping hits make him one of the most formidable pop/rock artists of our time,” said NAB Executive Vice President of Radio John David. “We thank BMI for connecting us and look forward to the energy his performance will bring to the Marconis.”
DeGraw is currently on a North American tour with country star Shania Twain and is also the opening act for legendary artist Billy Joel.
DeGraw broke onto the charts with his debut album “Chariot” in 2003. The album sold over a million copies and includes three hit singles: “I Don’t Want To Be,” “Follow Through,” and “Chariot.” His self-titled second album debuted at number one on the digital sales chart and number seven on Billboard’s Top 200 album chart in 2008, which earned DeGraw his first Top 10 album. The album includes the hit singles “In Love With A Girl” and gold-certified “We Belong Together.” His third album, “Sweeter,” was released in September 2011 and includes the single “Not Over You,” which reached number one on the Hot AC chart, was a top 10 hit on Top 40, and was certified double platinum. DeGraw’s fourth album, “Make A Move,” was released in October 2013 to rave reviews. The single “We Both Know,” co-written with artist Colbie Caillat for the movie “Safe Haven,” earned him a Grammy nomination.
Established in 1989 and named after inventor and Nobel Prize winner Guglielmo Marconi, the NAB Marconi Radio Awards recognize stations and individuals for excellence in 20 categories. Winners are announced at the NAB Marconi Radio Awards Dinner & Show, which will be hosted by top-rated syndicated radio personality Rickey Smiley.
