LOS ANGELES (Top40 Charts/ Luck Media & Marketing) - Greg London's critically acclaimed show 'ICONMAN' may be wrapping its record breaking two and a half year run in Sammy's Showroom at Harrah's Reno November 28, but the master musical impressionist (www.gregorylondon.com) has found another venue in which to play multiple roles:
the Hollywood
Music In Media Awards (HMMA), where he will be both nominee and presenter. The red carpet studded HMMA, which honors the music of visual mediums, the talented individuals responsible for selecting it, and the music of artists, both mainstream and independent, from around the globe, takes place Thursday, November 19th, 2009 at the Highlands Nightclub located in the Hollywood & Highland/Kodak Theater complex.
London will present five awards to independent music artists. His recording of 'Everything I Own' is nominated in the Adult Contemporary category for having the highest charting new artist release and highest charting release on an independent label (airplay charts).
On November 28, after London's final performance of 'ICONMAN,' Harrah's Reno will host an invitation only exclusive farewell party honoring his incredible achievements-which include being voted 'Best Entertainer In Nevada' in Nevada Magazine's 2009 Best of Nevada Readers Survey.
The 10 p.m. reception will take place on the 4th floor of the West Tower.
Capping an incredible year in Reno and on the adult contemporary airplay charts, London also recently made Music Connection Magazine's list of Hot 100 Unsigned Artists of 2009. The list will be published in the print and online editions of the December issue.
As the holiday season approaches, there is something else for London and his fans to celebrate: the return of his beautifully arranged, intimate rendition of 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas.' Originally released in 2008, the track-produced by veteran film composer Eric Colvin and featuring popular saxophonist Warren Hill and vocals by James Taylor's longtime backing vocalists Arnold McCuller and Kate Markowitz-is back at AC radio as one of the most added for holiday season airplay.
