LiveDaily's Best of 2004
Dec 29, 2004 |
From LiveDaily:
In an industry where pop icons are often traded in for new models on a regular basis, Hanson fans have dug in their heels to support the band through the end of their major label deal and into the launch of their indie start-up imprint. The results are impressive: "Underneath Acoustic," the band's debut offering on their new label, debuted at #1 on the Billboard indie chart based almost completely on online Hanson website sales alone. HansonHotel.com is part of the reason for that accomplishment. Amid the clean, simple layout is a surprisingly deep archive of Hanson information and downloads. Of course, our opinion isn't what matters here. Hanson fans clearly love the site. In this year's voting, HansonHotel.com's win was practically uncontested based on volume of votes.
OTHER NOMINEES: bootlegbetty.com (Bette Midler), rascalflattsfans.com (Rascal Flatts), ryanadams.org (Ryan Adams), nancies.org (Dave Matthews Band).
