Neko Case nominated for 4 PLUG Awards!

Friday November 17, 2006

Neko Case has been nominated for 4 PLUG Awards, including Album Of The Year, Americana Album Of The Year, Artist Of The Year, Female Artist Of The Year.

This year the PLUG Cartel (the advisory board that submits potential nominees) overwhlemingly supported Neko Case and her album, Fox Confessor Brings The Flood.

This year, more than any previous year the Cartel (250 members this year) more widely included the best and most active artist out there (those "roughing it in the trenches"). The Cartel includes key members of the independent community from buyers at Waterloo, Newbury and Amoeba to writers from Pitchfork to RS to DIW, college and commercial radio programmers from WOXY to KEXP, site owners from stereogum to brooklyn vegan and gorilla vs bear, and on. A massive community effort put together the nominations.

At any rate the nominees have been announced today, lead story at PF today, which much more press to come. Fans can now VOTE for Neko Case through January.

Congratulations to Neko Case!
