Album of the Year Category Winner - Sonia V. - "a thing or 2"
Influences: Rolling Stones, Papa Roach, Stryper, Jet, Pretenders, The Ramones, The Sex Pistols, Letters to Cleo, No Doubt, Heart
Sounds Like: Sonia V. is one of a kind. But if I hafta.....Chick Rock with a Rolling Stones & Ramones attitude with a little hard rock chick thrown in for good measure. I've been influenced by all kinds of music, here's the chicks: The Pretenders, Garbage, Blondie, Joan Jett, Heart/Anne Wilson, Annie Lennox, Cyndi Lauper, Madonna, Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, Letters to Cleo, No Doubt, as far as chicks go. But I prefer the harder rock-n-roll! Disturbed, Papa Roach, Korn, Marilyn Manson, HIM, My Chemical Romance. Favorite band evah - Stryper, favorite male vox - Michael Sweet! And now I have a duet with him on my album!
