New York, NY – 2025 – Internationally acclaimed entertainer Quinn Lemley is turning heads once again. Her innovative talk show Secrets of the Stage—a weekly series that lifts the curtain on the creative process—continues to captivate audiences, and now Lemley herself has been honored with a nomination at the prestigious 2025 Josie Music Awards.
Airing Sunday nights at 7:30 PM EST on Manhattan Neighborhood Network and streaming as a podcast, Secrets of the Stage brings viewers into intimate conversations with artists, entrepreneurs, and creators. Lemley’s mission is simple but powerful: reveal the grit, humor, and humanity behind the spotlight.
“We always see the polished end product,” says Lemley. “But the real magic is in the failures, the risks, the sparks that keep people going. That’s what Secrets of the Stage is all about—sharing the human side of creation.”
The recognition from the Josie Music Awards marks a milestone moment. Now in its 11th year, the Josies have become the gold standard for independent music. With nearly 86,000 submissions in 2025 and only 2.8% advancing to the final round, a nomination signals excellence and artistry at the highest level.
Known for her powerhouse performances in Rita Hayworth: The Heat is On! A Life in Concert and other acclaimed productions, Lemley has built a career that straddles music, theater, television, and film. Her versatility and dedication to both performance and storytelling make her one of the most dynamic forces in today’s entertainment world.
Lemley’s Josie nomination underscores her ability to move seamlessly between the stage and the screen, bridging the worlds of performance and conversation.
The 2025 Josie Music Awards will take place this fall at the iconic Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville, Tennessee.
