#NAMMShow2019Update: Demetri Martin to Return as Host of the 34th Annual NAMM TEC Awards

The Technical Excellence and Creativity (TEC) Awards has announced that stand-up comedian and entertainer extraordinaire Demetri Martin will return as the host of the 34th annual NAMM TEC Awards on Saturday, January 26, 2019, in Anaheim, California. The TEC Awards take place during The NAMM Show, the global crossroads of the music products, pro audio, and event technology industries.

The in-demand and unconventional humorist who just released his latest Netflix special, The Overthinker, is known for his deadpan delivery style, humorous quips, and impeccable timing. After his rousing and successful hosting of the 2018 TEC Awards, the organization was pleased to invite Martin back for another year. Of returning to the Show Martin shared, “I’m excited to return to host the NAMM TEC Awards. I had fun last year, and I plan to be even more prepared this time. I’m going to write several new jokes and hopefully, learn to play at least one new chord on my guitar for the event.”

The NAMM TEC Awards are bestowed annually in honor of the many individuals, companies and technical innovations used in sound recordings, films, broadcast television, and video games, with the 2019 nominees announced earlier this year here. On the evening of the awards, the winners in 31 categories of products and projects in the areas of Technical or Creative Achievement will be announced.
