Ladies and gentlemen, welcome, welcome, to the annual NorthWest Music Scene Reader’s Poll, where we asked you, the loyal readers, to vote on what you considered to be the best albums released in the Pacific Northwest in 2015. 14 intense days and thousands of votes later, we’re here to show you the results of all your hard work and congratulate the bands on a job well done both in the studio, on stage and of course in this contest. The last few days were back and forth and there really was no clear front-runner until the very end. It was competitive and we hope you all had fun with it, we sure did. Also, if you’re super good at math you’ll likely spot that there are actually 11 albums on this list due to a tie for 10th place. Let’s get on with it though.
Also, a huge shout out to GigTown for teaming up with us to make it even more awesome. If you haven’t downloaded the app yet, you can do that HERE.

Thank you once again to all those that took part in this contest and kept us on our toes with all your votes and all your submissions. We literally could not do this killer contest without you. Anyone that says there isn’t great music being made these days is full of crap and you can tell them we said so.
Thank you once again to GigTown for helping us support local music!
