For the first time Sunday, two Armenian music awards shows will be condensed to one, bigger show; the Armenian Music Awards and the M Club Video Music Awards. Think American Music Awards for Armenian performers. And the venue’s much bigger – the Nokia Theatre in downtown Los Angeles.

(Audio: Paul Yalnezian produces and organizes this year’s show. He talked to KPCC’s Steve Julian about bringing these two shows together.)
