Last year, I turned the month of November over to you guys to pick which bands/artists you most wanted to see featured in our NW4NW posts. All Request Month turned out to be a pretty popular idea, so I figured why not do it again this year?
Ta-da!
November will once again be "All Request Month" in the NW4NW series. Beginning next Monday, November 1, and continuing through Monday, December 1, I will be posting NW4NW entries about the artists YOU ask for! Please post your requests in the comments section below - tell me the artist you want to request, a specific song if you like, and a screen name I can use in the post to credit you for your suggestion. Or, if you like, you can make your request over on our Facebook Fanpage, or on our TwitterPage.
So, I turn it over to you guys - for the month of November, New Wave for the New Week is in your hands! And, just as last year, if the response is as great, you won't be getting just one NW4NW entry per week - I'll post one every day if have to to meet the demand!
Below is a full list of every band/artist that has been featured since the NW4NW series began in March of '09, so that you can see if the band you want has already been featured. Only one band has ever been repeated.
I'm looking forward to your requests, and will fill them on a first-come, first served basis. Ready? GO!
