2nd Annual Who’s Hot In Ottawa’s Music Scene 2013 [Results]

Posted by on January 7, 2013 11 comments


It’s back again and early this year! (If people like it or not :P )
The “Who’s Hot In Ottawa’s Music Scene” Poll returns for 2013.
Did it for the first time last year.
As a reminder this is just for fun or possibly who wins can be in the 4in1 session for March.
Hot doesn’t mean looks and sex appeal.
It’s all about the music, sound and passion that drives an artist to being “hot” to their fans and audience.
Making the playing fields easier this year.
Last year’s winner won’t be counted this year (Don’t want to be like Xpress [RIP] where they always have the same winners every year :P ) and make it fair for anyone nominated.
Also if I forgotten someone, please make a comment.
Here is this year’s nominees!
Enjoy and vote as many times as you want.

Let’s hope we survive the Mayan Calendar or with the hectic Christmas Holiday shopping/festive stuff!!?
Everyone in Ottawa, get ready for the return of The White Wires.
Myself it’s been awhile that I had seen them play live. (Last time was February 6th)
For those not going away for the Christmas holidays.
Why not go to Babylon on December 22nd for their “proper” LP release of WWIII which dropped on July 31, 2012.
It’s been long over due and it’s going to be one wild show and party.
If you have been living under a rock.
Check out their song All Night Long.

Opening up will be another band who hasn’t played live in Ottawa for awhile.
It is Uranium Comeback.
