GODSMACK
TAKE HOME FOUR BOSTON MUSIC AWARDS
INCLUDING “ACT OF THE YEAR” AND “ALBUM OF THE YEAR”
GODSMACK–one of the top winners at the 14th annual Boston Music Awards–were on hand at the April 19 ceremony in their Boston hometown to receive four trophies: “Act of the Year,” “Best Rock Band,” “Album of the Year” for the band’s platinum-certified AWAKE (Republic/Universal) and “Male Vocalist of the Year” for frontman SULLY ERNA. The band led the list of nominees with seven nods overall.
This news comes just as GODSMACK—SULLY (vocals), TONY ROMBOLA (guitar), ROBBIE MERRILL (bass), TOMMY STEWART (drums)–wrap up a major sold-out headlining North American tour and begin preparation for a European arena tour with Limp Bizkit. This high-profile trek is scheduled to kick off May 16 in Amsterdam and will travel to 21 different cities in five weeks, including two-night stands in cites such as Milan, Lisbon and London. From there, GODSMACKwill return to the U.S. mid-July for the much-anticipated launch of their first-ever major outdoor amphitheater tour. Deftones will join GODSMACK for what will surely be the most exciting hard rock tour in the coming months. Tour dates will be announced soon.
