Congratulations Brandon, Layne and
Aaron, and all those songwriters who submitted
entries. The judges were impressed by quality and
high calibre of the songs that were submitted, and
faced many tough decisions on which were the top
10 songs, let alone choosing the top 3.
And many heartfelt thanks to our event
sponsors for their support – Stonebridge Guitars,
Dave Gunning, H&R Music Ltd., Blues C Music, G&G
Music Ltd., CKEC East Coast FM, The News, SOCAN,

Congratulations on your great work!
