The Premios Nuestra Tierra or Our Country Awards is an annual Colombian music award show. They have a format similar to that of the Grammy Awards, but restricted to the Colombian scope. The first Premios Nuestra Tierra were held in 2007. From 2015 through 2019 the show was discontinued for unknown reasons, until 2020 when they returned.

History

The awards began in 2007 and were created by Blanca Luz Holguín, Fernán Martínez and Alejandro Villalobos with the purpose of encouraging Colombian artists and trying to encourage new Colombian singers so that the music industry in Colombia has much greater movement.

In 2008 and 2009 Movistar bought half of the proposal that was renamed "Premios Movistar nuestra tierra" in order to promote its other colombian project "Movistar Radio". Since 2010 the prizes have been renamed "premios nuestra tierra" without any sponsored. [1]

On May 16, 2020, after seven years since the last award ceremony, the ninth edition is held. [2]

Method of choice

The winners are chosen through an association that has the organization of the awards, where directors participate, some representatives of the Colombian record companies and executives of RCN and Caracol Radio.

Trophy

The current award is a heart with musical notes around and a crown at the top representing the heart of Jesus. [3]

At first the trophy was a plaque that symbolized the signs that Colombian public buses put to inform people where they are going, however, they realized that the plaque was very uncomfortable, and was later modernize to the current one.
