THE SECOND ANNUAL SUMMER SINGER-SONGWRITER COMPETITION PROVIDES PLATFORM FOR RISING STARS

July 16, 2018 – Fort Myers, FL – The Summer Singer-Songwriter Competition is back for its second year! On Friday, August 24th, experience an evening of original music from local and national competitors. See performers play for a chance to win recording time at Six Fingers Studios and a spot at the Island Hopper Songwriter Fest! The Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center is located at 2301 First St. in the historic downtown Fort Myers River District.
The Second Annual Summer Singer-Songwriter Competition is the most anticipated event of the season! In 2017, performers came from all over the country for a chance to win. However, it was two local performers, though, who took home the prizes. SWFL trio The Regulars were awarded the Grand Prize, and blues singer Millie Van Horn was awarded People’s Choice. Take part in this year’s competition to find out who will be this year’s winners! The Summer Singer-Songwriter Competition is sponsored by Volvo of Fort Myers, The Beaches of Fort Myers and Sanibel, Sanibel-Captiva Community Bank, and the Island Hopper Songwriter Fest.
Singer-songwriters have been invited to submit an original song to be considered for this year’s competition. The most remarkable performances are pre-selected to play live at the Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center during the Summer Singer-Songwriter Competition. The panel of industry judges select a Grand Prize winner, who will receive recording time at Six Fingers Studios and a performance spot at the Island Hopper Songwriter Fest! The audience will also have a chance to participate when they vote for the People’s Choice winner, who will receive recording time at Six Fingers Studios. Submission deadline is August 10th!
