The FW Weekly announced their music award nominations today. I was pleasantly surprised to find myself in four categories. I'm starting to feel like a politician. I was also happy to see multiple nominations for my friends, Kristina Morland and Theater Fire.

I've been nominated in the following categories:

Folk/Acoustic

Songwriter

Song of the Year "My Mephistophilis"

Album of the Year "The Sound of Dead Horses Beaten Against Cold Shoulders"

I'm still a bit shocked :) .

Also, this is the final week to vote in "Quicks Big Thing" where I've been nominated in the category of "Big Solo Artist". The winner will be decided by a popular vote at http://dallasnews.upickem.net/engine/Welcome.aspx?contestid=
6856. You may also vote for me by texting the number 19 to 25430 on your cell phone. A strange thing about the voting that may really make the difference is that you may vote TWICE...once online and once from your phone. Both votes will be counted. Be sure to check out the links to all the great dfw artists on the ballot.

Thanks so much for your help.

P.S. You don't have to live in DFW to vote in either of these. Voting ends Friday for the Quick. Voting ends June 28th for the FW Weekly.
