Jose and wife Kathy also promote New Mexico music through their New Mexico Music Awards program,
which recognizes excellence in music recorded and produced within the state of
New Mexico on an annual basis.
The program, the creation of New Mexico engineer and producer Eric
Larson and other New Mexico producers, engineers, artists and songwriters has
for the past 21 years sought to recognize those individuals who excel at their craft
within the music industry.
After Eric’s passing in April of 2005, The Eric Larson Endowment at the
University of New Mexico was created to assist those junior or senior students at
UNM who have declared music or a related field.
Each month we offer a sampling of poetry, essays and short stories as
well as columns related to music and the music industry. Please browse and let
us know what you think.
