Award season is here yet again, and it\u2019s one of The Local Voice<\/em> staff\u2019s favorite times. We\u2019ve tallied the votes and gathered photos of this year\u2019s Local Favorites Winners<\/strong>, a.k.a. \u201cThe Townies.\u201d<\/strong>
\nIt seems like every year we get some sort of surprise and this year was no different. After winning \u201cFavorite New Local Band\u201d last year, The Whiskey Barrels<\/strong> also won \u201cFavorite Local Band\u201d this year, and the band\u2019s members swept away many of the other categories in \u201cArts & Entertainment.\u201d Look for a feature on these local musicians in TLV #220, which will be out in early January.
\nAlso, this was the first year we offered the option of using an online survey platform to send us your answers, in addition to the physical newspaper ballots. We were very pleased with our voter turnout this year! If you don\u2019t like the results\u2026well, did YOU vote? Every vote counts, so try again next year! Maybe your favorite business or person will get bragging rights.<\/p>\n
