Eurythmics & Songland Icon Dave Stewart Awards Trackd Artist $6,000 And Recording Deal With Bay Street Records Via Trackd Music App
May 7th, 2020 – London, United Kingdom – Award winning singer, songwriter, musician, producer, and Eurythmics co-founder Dave Stewart announced the winner of the Trackd songwriting competition for artists in quarantine. There was joy for Welsh artist Otto who claimed the $6,000* prize and will see his collaboration with Dave Stewart released on Stewart’s brand new Bay Street Records label. Otto’s take on Dave Stewart’s song idea came out ahead of a wide selection of high calibre entries.
An imaginative rework sparked Dave’s imagination and the two have since been working on the song to be released as a single.
The promise of a hot summer track. “I was drawn towards Otto because he used my basic track as inspiration and then took it toanother place. That allowed me to use my imagination on how I could produce it into something special. Choosing an overall winner proved difficult, with so many professional entries, so I decided there needed to be runners up, and these include English artist Archie Norris; USA based Jazz artist Michael Incavo (working on an instrumental) and Sweden’s fast rising hip hop songstress Adée standing out.”
The competition, brainchild of Eurythmics’ Dave Stewart, co-founder and executive producer of hit NBC TV show Songland, saw artists release their collaboration on music creation and sharing platform Trackd. The initiative behind the contest encouraged artists in lockdown to use the time to get creative. To listen to the winning demos in progress head over to the Trackd website.
