As previously reported, the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences has placed Scarlet Sins on the official entry ballot for the 2009 Grammy Awards in the following categories:

Best Rock Album - Scarlet Sins

Best Hard Rock Performance - 'Drown'

Best Hard Rock Performance - 'Strangelove'

Best Rock Song - 'Drown'

The Toronto-based quartet recorded their debut self-titled album with producer/engineer Richard Chycki, who boasts a catalogue of work for acts including Rush, Aerosmith and Simple Plan to name only a few. Described by Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles writer Carl Begai as "the equivalent of a sonic freight train", an album is only as good as its players, however, and Chycki agrees he had real talent to work with.

“Anyone that hears the Sins CD can’t believe it’s a bunch of girls,” he says. “That’s such a stereotype, isn’t it? Really, they’re simply a solid, energetic band with good songwriting.”

This marks Scarlet Sins first official entry ballot for an award. Nominations will be announced on December 3, 2008 on CBS.

“We are so honoured to be on the entry ballot,” says Sylvya NuVynska, lead singer for Scarlet Sins. “We hope to follow in the footsteps of the many great rock bands that came before us.”
