Hey VIAindie fans... we made the cut into CBC Radio 3's Searchlight TOP 60!!!
R3 is looking for The Best Canadian Music Website, and we're honored to be nominated and that you guys have been voting for us!
That being said, we're not the only ones from Vancouver/BC nominated, so we want to show off our competition.
There are FIVE days left to vote...YOU CAN DO SO BY CLICKING HERE.
Today you get two websites for the price of one in our "The Local Competition" feature. First up: CFUV
CFUV is the ONLY Radio Station that was nominated in the Searchlight competition and it made it through into the Top 60!
Based in Victoria, CFUV can boast that it focuses on quality and diversity in its music programing, rather than just mass appeal (sounds similar to the station hosting the contest!) ...and according to its website, it is run by 200 volunteers!
Looks like we have some stiff competition on that basis alone... Congrats CFUV!

Next we have Island Soapbox!
I love our friends over at Island Soapbox...they were just tweeting me the other day! They feature and support many of the same artists that VIAindie loves; they do reviews, interviews and just send out general love to the BC music scene and its friends!
Their twitter is just as full of support as their website, and for that we salute you Island Soapbox!
If either of these two websites tickle your fancy, show them some Top 60 Love!...
***Check back daily to see another website by our Local Competition...and vote EVERY DAY (once a day) until Thursday the 17th***
