Faroese Music Awards (short form: FMA, in Faroese: Føroysku Tónlistavirðislønirnar) is a Faroese music prize, which was established in 2014, after the former Faroese music prize Planet Awards was abolished in connection with Portal.fo being sold to new owners. Faroese Music Awards is a cooperation between Kringvarp Føroya, the newspaper Sosialurin and the internet new portal In.fo and the Nordic House.[1]
