Best of Nashville Open Submissions, (Stage 1): Kink Ador

As you may know, this is only the initial stage of our poll, as about 50 other Nashville artists were selected by a jury of local promoters, music bloggers and other scene makers. (We’ll publish that list soon, along with our Sonic Bids selections).

Kink Ador received the most votes out of the Nashville-based artists that submitted in the "Open Submissions" category to be considered for our Best of Nashville Poll 2010. They will move on to the next stage of our poll!

Their music reminds us of the B-52’s, Sleater-Kinney, and some of the older Yeah Yeah Yeah’s stuff. Good mix huh? Check out their stuff, and if you like it, be a friend and fan them on Facebook. Apparently their band page was recently deleted on accident/hacked, thus causing them to lose over 3,000 fans. That’s a bummer. Help’em out!–Erin Manning
