The Colorado Blues Society Members Choice Awards are given out every year to honor the Colorado Blues Society' MEMBERS Favorite musicians, clubs, events and activities in the Colorado blues world. These Awards are know as the Holley Awards in honor of long time Denver blues man Creighton Holley. By no means do these Awards attempt to declare a Best of anything, we would never try to classify music in such a way, everyone's tastes are different and no one's are more valued than anyone else's. This is simply an effort to honor the Favorites of our members. The Colorado Blues Society Board of Directors does NOT select the Final Recipients! Every year a call goes out for nominations in a number of categories. Once the nominations are set, Colorado Blues Society Members do ALL of the  voting.  A person MUST be a member of CBS to be allowed to vote. If you have your own favorites and are not a CBS member, now is the perfect time to join CBS so you can vote in the next Members Choice Awards.

The awards were started in 2012. The Members Choice Awards for every year are listed in subpages when you click on the Members Choice tab. Due to COVID, there were no Members Choice Awards given in 2020.
