A winner has been selected in the Hooked! Songwriting Contest of 2024.
Amy Geis of Spanish Fork, Utah, was the first place winner in the prestigious competition. Geis received a $1,000 cash prize and a six-month subscription to Inside Pitch Club.
Fraser Armstrong of Springfield, MO, was the recipient of a $500 cash prize for second place and Chip Boyd of Colleyville, Texas, in third place, received a $300 cash award.
The Hooked! Songwriting Contest annually receives thousands of submissions, which are all reviewed by submission judges. Those submissions are narrowed down to ten finalists, who competed on stage in front of a live audience and celebrity judges.
This year's celebrity judges included Garon Brett, Katie Peterson and Dean Z.
More than just a competition, this event also serves as a fundraiser. Proceeds from this year's ticket sales were presented to the Branson Veterans Task Force.
"This was our best contest yet," said Brydon Brett, one of the founders of the Hooked! Songwriting Contest. "We are reaching songwriters from across the country and artists of a higher caliber. Hooked! is gaining recognition as a contest. We were able to include Inside Pitch Club in the prize package. We are going to keep growing and be able to offer even better prizes and opportunities to our finalists in the future."
