Sam Lachow was originally voted as the number 8 but the panel voted Luck-One over him so he gets bumped to #9. Sam has been quiet these past few months (very ironic that we featured a release from him today here). Although he hasn’t had much music released this past year he has an album on the way and is featured on popular Northwest festivals such as Sasquatch, Bumpershoot, and Capital Hill Block party. Be sure to checkout the full list so far.
