David Bash's Best Releases of 2012

Hi Folks

The Ace have had some more good news, our album 'Next Time Around' managed to sneak into David Bash's 'best of' list for 2012. David is best known for being the CEO of the International Pop Overthrow festivals, a respected music journalist and expert on all things POP! We came 125 out of the list of 125, but we made it onto the list. Hopefully, we'll rise up the table with our future releases, if we can come up with the tunes.

Check out the David's various lists for 2012 here,
