BRITISH ATTENTION TO OUR BBC AWARD NOMINEES

In 2006 BBC awarded ‘Armenian Navy Band’, led by Arto Tuncboyacian, and
17-years-old Silva Hakobian, who was not well known before. Yesterday
UK Ambassador Anthony Cantor organized an invitation in his house
of Armenia in honor of the nominees. There were also the members of
‘Armenian Navy Band’, Silva’s mother, father and sister, Mane, who
is the author of the nominated song ‘I like’, also brother, Edgar,
who is the producer.

‘The aim of this invitation, though a little late, is to value and
congratulate the ‘Armenian Navy Band’ and Silva Hakobian on their
prizes. About 20 thousand fans voted for ‘Armenian Navy Band’ at the
‘Listener’s prize’ nomination, and Silva got her prize at the ‘Next
Big Thing’ nomination, the Ambassador said. Arto and Silva thanked
UK Embassy and BBC for their support and prizes.

Silva’s new video clip and CD will be ready next month, which will
be introduced in California. What about ‘Armenian Navy Band’, it will
have concerts in several countries abroad, probably also in Beirut.
