JSS WIN JAWARD

Levity® artist, The John Steel Singers were recently awarded the Triple J Unearthed Artist of the Year for 2008! This award goes to the Unearthed artist demonstrating the most musical growth and potential to contribute to Australian music.

Co-front man Tim who was there on the night to receive the award said “The band has put in a lot of hard work this year so it’s really good to see this recognised. There were some really great bands nominated so to be in such good company was amazing then to actually win was amazing times two!”

This award tops off a massive year for the band since winning the original Unearthed competition to play the Big Day Out on the Gold Coast early in 2008. 12 months on they have been signed to Levi’s® record label Levity®, supported the Grates on tour, released a new EP “In Colour”, finished a sold out national tour of their own as well as being added to the Falls Festival and Laneway line ups.
