S and S Digital Record's has officially submitted the groundbreaking album My Amir by The World's No.1 Superstar for consideration in the Record of the Year category at the Libera Awards 2025. The album is now in the hands of the esteemed panel of judges, awaiting its place in independent music’s most prestigious awards.
The Libera Awards, now in its 14th year, recognize the excellence and creativity of independent musicians and the teams behind them. Designed to spotlight the voices of independent artists who often go unrecognized in mainstream media, the Libera Awards have become a powerful celebration of talent and innovation in the independent music sector. The awards ceremony will take place live on Monday, June 9, 2025, at the renowned Gotham Hall in New York City.
As posted on the Libera Awards official website:
“The Libera Awards show is the biggest night of the year for independent music. It’s an opportunity to celebrate the incredible talent, diversity, creativity, and hard work that take place throughout the year. And it’s an opportunity for us all to gather in one place and embrace the strength of our community,” says Dr. Richard James Burgess, MBE, President and CEO of A2IM. “We are thrilled to add three new categories to the 2024 awards, to further shine a spotlight on the depth and breadth of the independent sector. We look forward to seeing and celebrating those nominated in the weeks ahead.”
Sidow Sobrino’s My Amir album has also recently been considered for two Grammy nominations by The National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (NARAS), in the categories of Best Alternative Music Album and Album of the Year, further solidifying its status as one of the year’s most important releases.
In a statement reflecting on his journey, Sidow Sobrino shared, “My biggest award is to continue doing what I love—following my calling and dedicating myself day and night to creating music. Living in the spotlight is a treat that comes with many challenges, and enduring it is by far the best feeling in the world.”
Sidow’s success would not be possible without the constant support and collaboration of his husband, Richard Sidow-Sobrino, who plays an essential role in the creative production of Sidow’s music. “I never thought life would go in such a direction when I first joined my Celebrated husband, Diego in the production of our material. He is a huge part of everything we do,” Richard reflects.
As the international pop icon promotes his holiday hit Decorating Christmas from his upcoming LP Seminal, his previous album My Amir continues to receive recognition for its groundbreaking impact on independent music. Sidow’s unwavering commitment to his artistry, combined with his unique ability to connect with fans around the globe, has solidified him as one of the most influential independent musicians of his generation.
