IDLES, Dave and Jade Bird are among the winners of this year's AIM Awards

The winners for this year's AIM Independent Music Awards were announced last night at a London ceremony.

Taking place at the Roundhouse, both Dave and IDLES celebrated two wins each, with Jade Bird, Freya Ridings, Gerry Cinnamon, and Georgia taking home prizes too.

The Kinks’ Ray Davies also presented Debbie Harry with her Outstanding Contribution award, while The Smiths’ Johnny Marr received the Pioneer Award.

AIM CEO Paul Pacifico comments: "The list of winners tonight reflects the boldness of the independent community - artists and labels who are unafraid to push the boundaries and take risks to produce some of the UK’s most cutting-edge cultural output. As we celebrate AIM’s twentieth year championing independence, it’s amazing to see that creative spirit celebrated in this way at a venue like the Roundhouse."
