Pure Rawk 2009 voting open now!

For those of you who don’t know about the Pure Rawk Awards, they have been described by BND Music Co as “fast becoming the "underground" rock barometer in the UK" – we’re asking you once again to help change history and get great up and coming, new and underground bands the notice they deserve!

What are the categories? These are the following categories: Band of the Year, New Band of the Year, Frontperson of the Year, Axe Hero of the Year, EP/Single of the Year, Album of the Year, Gig/Tour/Event of the Year, Stunt of the Year, Label of the Year and also New Breed Award. If you are interested in sponsoring any of these awards, please email Nix at purerawk@rock.com and you’ll be provided with an info pack.

We’ve included a new one this year as we’ve had some very lovely ladies adorning our posters. “Pin-Up” of the year will be open for voting in the second phase of voting. The New Breed Award is only open to those who have contributed to Pure Rawk over the past 12 months.

So, what about the awards ceremony? They will be held in Camden on Friday 27th February 2009. We’ll have 3 bands and a blinding acoustic set for your pleasure plus prizes and give-aways on the night. Check on the website for more information, but we’ll be offering up the first few tickets for a tiny 50p! This also includes the after show party!

Where can I vote?
