It was a long and complicated process, but our Best of NYC Poll has finally come to an end. We have gathered all the data from jurors, writers, and readers, and we have indeed the first verdict: Alt Rockers Midnight Spin are The Deli Readers’ Best Emerging Artist of 2009 – they took our Fans’ poll by storm with more than 1k votes. Congrats to them! The results of our Composite Chart (the one including the votes from the jury and the writers which will elect the artist that will grace the cover of our spring printed issue) will be announced on Wednesday, as we need a few days to organize it and add up the votes (yeah, we suck at math).
Congrats also to Cavalier Rose and The Shake – who placed 2nd and 3rd in the Fans’ Poll. These 3 bands will win some prizes offered by our sponsors, and Midnight Spin also a full feature in a future issue of The Deli.
