The Austin Chronicle's Music Poll

21 ... 21 ... 21 ... 21 ... 21

With these results in hand, The Austin Chronicle's Music Poll turns 21 years old. Think about it: 21 years of Austin music fans having their say. That's you, dear Chronicle reader, making the calls year after year. You've helped it graduate from being a local popularity contest to an internationally recognized barometer of the best music Austin offers.

Beyond being a barometer, the 2001-02 Music Poll is a mirror of the times. The names reflect a wide and rich variety of music and musicians. From jazz to alt-punk to country to Tejano to hip-hop, the fabric is textured and colorful. That's why it's such a pleasure to welcome new faces in with veteran winners. One of the most astonishing aspects of the poll is its way of choosing winners years before they are recognized with album sales and Grammys. Career awards for Jimmie Vaughan, Lucinda Williams, and Joe Ely began right here in the pages of The Austin Chronicle. And for first time winners like the Harris & Ryden Band, Grupo Fantasma, Shelley King, Del Castillo, Caroline Herring, the best is surely yet to come.

The Music Poll grows, and as it does, it gets younger. This is Kissinger's second year to make a strong showing; they're a good bet for top awards next year. And sometimes the strength of a band is not in how many top slots it gets but simply where it places; witness the strong showings of bands like Cruiserweight, Damesviolet, and the Kevin Fowler Band. They are also good bets for future winners.

The cliché is true, however, that the more things change the more they stay the same. There's a great comfort in seeing Toni Price recognized for another stellar album or Eric Johnson still collecting awards after all these years. Even more significant is the way the Hall of Fame now takes in those who passed, like Mambo John Treanor and Dan Del Santo, as well as those who are still making music. Quality counts, and the readers know it.

So, at 21, consider this the Class of 2002 well-educated, well-loved, and ready to rock the world. -- Margaret Moser


(This year's poll is dedicated to its founder, the late Jeff Whittington.)
