Congratulations to All of Our Best of Seattle Music Winners!

Categories: Best Of 2011

By now you've (hopefully) picked up a copy of SW's monstrously large Best of 2011 edition, which hits on everything from Best Thai Restaurant to Best Geezer. But with any 144-page endeavor comes a technical mishap or two. Due to reasons far too complex to delve into (real quantum mechanics-type stuff), the Music section got a tad jumbled up in the online edition, getting scattered among Arts & Entertainment and Bars & Clubs.

To save you the pain of searching "Vicci Martinez" or "Third-Best Band Name," we've pulled out all the music winners and made a much more manageable list for you to pick through.

Enjoy!
