KITTS, MAY 10TH 2012 (Small Axe Band International) – The International Soca Music Awards organization has announced that Small Axe Band International has been nominated for the Over All Soca Band of the Year Award 2012. “We are forever grateful and humbled when our work is recognized by anyone and we thank the people at the Soca Awards Inc.

He went on to say that, while we wish everyone well, we are in this to win it and is encouraging fans and well-wishers to go to the web address http://www.socaawards.com/NOMINEES.html and vote for Small Axe Band International to win this award and continue to push St. Kitts and Nevis’ flavor of soca to the front of the regional and international stage.
