Voting for favorite artists began on Thursday, April 1, 2004 on the California Music Awards website www.californiamusicawards.com; the deadline to cast a vote is Tuesday, June 1, 2004. The people chose the musical artists who are presented with awards at the CAMA’s each year, so hopefully you didn’t miss your chance to vote for your favorite bands. Find out who wins on Sunday!
