BAND, Winner
The Throwdowns
Website: http://thethrowdowns.com
This BOM award comes on the eve of the band’s first full-length album release (Legs Of Our Own), and true to their debut EP’s title, it doesn’t look like these peppy rockers will be ‘slowing down’ any time soon. Drummer Ian Hollingsworth is a proverbial animal, Ola Shaw’s a madman both behind the mixing-and fret boards, Kimo Clark’s got an impressive vertical equal and opposite to his bass lines and Erin Smith’s a guitar-wielding, high-heeling wahine who’s go the “Best Female Musician” award locked down year after year. Mix ‘em all together and you’ve got a recipe for sound-success.
