The Deli readers have spoken!
After two weeks of voting and with 1,480 votes, new wave rockers Excuses For Skipping (pictured) emerged as the winner of our Bay Area Best of 2011 Fans’ + Readers’ Poll. Don’t miss SF’s favorite quartet when they play Hemlock Tavern tonight, Feb. 3, and Brick and Mortar on March 1.
Kudos also to the seven-piece, indie orchestra The Family Crest and pop punk, hardcore kids Local Hero, who placed respectively second and third.
Stay tuned: The overall results of the Bay Area Year End Poll for Emerging Artists – including votes from our esteemed jury and open submissions – will be released Monday.
