The award was named after Dylan Taite, one of the countries most renowned music journalists who died in 2003. The award is similar to the Mercury Prize in that it is based on the merit of the music rather than the commercial success that it has achieved. The winner will receive $10,000 and it will be announced on March 31 at Auckland’s Plaything gallery. The finalists are David Dallas for Something Awesome, Lawrence Arabia for Chant Darling, The Checks for Alice By The Moon, Shapeshifter for The System Is A Vampire and Keretta for Vilayer.
