Curly Grrlz Skateboards/GoGirls Music Hip Clipz Artist Search Winners

Congratulations to The AndWutz. Hip Clipz Artist search winner!The AndWutz are an all female four-piece band based in Waltham, Massachusetts. With no prior musical experience, the girls formed the band originally as a joke with the intentions of shooting a fake music video to laugh at. But since they wanted to make it look like they knew what they were doing...they attempted to actually play.... Only 5 months later, they were literally forced to start playing shows by their friends in other bands.... Since then, they have played with a long list of talented bands including; The Queers, Waltham and Seemless & at all the hottest venues in Boston; The Paradise, The Middle East and Harper's Ferry as well as the legendary CBGB's in NY.

Lili Bellini -bass/vocals

Curly Grrlz Skateboards/GoGirls Music Hip Clipz Artist Search Winner


Well, the votes are in...We have a winner...

For the past several years we've been featuring a cool band on our website each month...Some we've left on a bit longer. We've featured bands like; Plain White Ts, Paramore, Fall Out Boy, Panic at the Disco, Phantom Planet, Cyndi Lauper, The Veronicas, Everybody Else, Days Away, Tsunami Bomb, Gym Class Dropouts, MINK, Saving Jane, Pretty in Stereo, The Breakup...(Sorry if we left your band out)

In July we decided to find a cool indie girl act (or band with a girl front) to showcase. We partnered-up with GoGirls Music (the authority on indie girl acts), and found a bunch of sponsors like Daisy Rock, Pretty Tough, Play Like A Girl Sports, Switchring, Anarchy/Angel Eyewear, Sonicbids, Girls Rock Radio and Vans and ran a contest. Demo-ology hooked-us-up with some awesome web wizidry and The Cover Zone provided us with a website and vote tabulation.

The voting ran from December 1-31, 2007 and we received thousands of votes...

We'll the results are in and we have a winner....The AndWutz!
