Super Extra Prize Winners
Super Extra Bonus Party, as featured recently on Sound System Podcast 41, were announced tonight as the 2007 winners of the Choice Music Prize, the award following a great year for the band on the back of their self titled release, ‘Super Extra Bonus Party’.
Once again, I think, the Choice Music Prize and judged have trumped up another top class act and another surprise to the masses. The SEBP crew topped the judges voting ahead of Adrian Crowley (Long Distance Swimmer), early favourite Cathy Davey (Tales Of Silversleeve), Delorentos (In Love With Detail), Dry County (Unexpected Falls), The Flaws (Achieving Vagueness), David Geraghty (Kill Your Darlings), Kila (Gambler’s Ballet), Roisin Murphy (Overpowered) and Stanley Super 800 (Louder & Clearer).
No doubt there’ll be a flurry of activity from Irish music bloggers there on the night but from ourselves at KKM, fair play to Super Extra Bonus Party, well deserved and here’s to a terrific 2008.
You can can the band in action in Kilkenny this weekend as they take to the stage in Eddie Murphy’s, Thomastown, with Band On An Island and New York Fashion Week as part of the Leap Party.
