may be any type of music, and must be the original work of the entrant. Those who wish to
enter need not be skilled musicians. There are songs in the hearts of everyone. The songs
entered into the contest are not judged on the slickness of their presentation. However, a
good recording showcases the songs to the best advantage.
Since its beginning in 1992, the contest has generated hundreds of songs about
every conceivable aspect of Florida: its history, land, water, characters, weather, and crea-
tures. Songs have been serious, comical, romantic,or inspirational. They have included
folk, country, rap, blues, jazz, and classical. Entries arrive from various areas of the USA,
but most come from Florida.
Judges include well known songwriter Billy Dean, three-time winner Mike Ju-
rgensen and Donna Green Townsend, Director of News Features at WUFT FM of the
University of Florida. They will rate the songs on authenticity, originality, and emotional
impact, as well as technical aspects.
Each person may submit up to three songs. Cash prizes are awarded the top three
entries. Winners are invited to perform on the main stage at the annual Will McLean Music
Festival, March 8,9,10, 2013 at the Sertoma Youth Ranch in Brooksville, Florida. All who
enter will have an opportunity to share their songs in song circles at the festival.
For more information call 352-489-3677.
