Last week the grand prize & category winners of the International Songwriting Competition 2019 were announced. Guess what? The massive hit ‘Dance Monkey’ by Tones & I was the grand prize winner and in my category The Tesky Brothers won. Can you believe I was among those as a finalist?
But! That’s not the end of the story, because today – in my spam folder – I found an email from the ISC saying my entry ‘Name of Love‘ received honorable mention in my category. Only 1% of the 18.000 entries from 140 countries get awarded honorable mention and also get to use the ‘winner’ badge. It may not be a cash prize, but I am SUPER happy with this vote of confidence for my songwriting! And the cherry on top: I did win one of the three Spire Studios from iZotope for the ‘Inspire Your Song’ promotion. I can’t wait to try it out and write more songs!
