Toronto, ON - World Quest Music Songwriting Contest 2008
The World Quest Music Songwriting Contest is a new Canadian songwriting contest that is being launched Wednesday March 26th for the general public. Professional entries began March 17th. Everyone is eligible, any genre of music is welcome.
Two talented individuals Mr. Troy Bynoe, (Musical Director/Composer) and Ms. Sammi Shi (Digital Video Editor/Graphic Designer/3D Animator/Website Designer) have led a team to build The World Quest Music Songwriting Contest based on the theme “everyone has a song”. There are cash and product prizes to be won, the contest is free of charge to the general public, and $10 for professional entries.
The contest itself is open to professional and non-professional songwriters who submit entries at www.worldquestmusic.com. Professional and Non-Professional entries are paired off into two independently running contests. There are no musical categories in this competition, which makes this Contest rather unique, there is a public voting area and a unique wild card vote by select judges.
Judges represent all genres and feature award-winning industry professionals including veteran music publisher Tony Tobias, Gemini nominated Jennifer Podemski, Idol musician Wilson Laurencin, and Doug Bedard of AVR Toronto’s “The Plex Show”.
The contest runs for five months and entrants can enter up to five (5) songs in the Non-Professional grouping and up to ten (10) songs in the Professional grouping. Both groupings run together, the Professional March 17 through July 26, and the Non-Professional March 26 through August 8. Contestants go head to head online where fans vote for their favorite entries. Semi-Finalists, Finalists and Grand Prize Winners are chosen based on these tallied online votes.
