FIDS & KAMILY AWARDS: For the fourth year in a row, we’ve participated as a judge for the Fids and Kamily Awards: “The Fids and Kamily Poll is the first compilation of year-end kids and family music “best of” lists from critics, writers, radio programmers, and others involved in the music industry. The poll was launched in 2006 and was inspired by the Village Voice’s long-running “Pazz and Jop” music poll. The full results of the poll, including essays on the top 10 albums and a listing of other nominated albums, are available at the Fids and Kamily website (www.fidsandkamily.com).”

HFVS 10 BEST OF 2010: This weeks episode features some of the great new music we played this past year and considered for the Fids & Kamily Awards.  Look for our 10 Best Of 2010 list in the weeks to come!
