Ross Neilsen Nominated For Maple Blues Award

Filed in:

Our Halloween hearts are filled with pride as we announce that Ross Neilsen has just been nominated as Best New Artist for a Maple Blues Award. We couldn't agree more with the nomination as Ross Neilsen and his Sufferin' Bastards are without a doubt one of the hardest working blues acts in this country, playing upwards of 200 self-booked shows a year.

To read Ross's take on the nomination, visit his
Global Domination Blog here: http://rossneilsen.blogspot.com/2009/10/maple-blues-nomination.html

This nomination couldn't come at a better time as we here at Thorny Bleeder Records will be officially releasing the amazing Ross Neilsen album, Early Grave, on November 17, worldwide.
