CAN'T STOP THE MUSIC: More international acclaim for Australian based songwriter John Harley Weston

While the winner of the current Australian National Songwriting contest is hard at work on new songs for another album the accolades keep pouring in for songs off his current album 'Hope Harbour'…..this time from the judges of Unisong International Songwriting Contest who gave birth to songwriters Burt Bacharach, Jimmy Buffet, Stewart Copeland, Mick Fleetwood, Indigo Girls, Glady's Knight, Peter Frampton, Lisa Loeb, Bonnie Raitt, Don Was and well, I'm sure you get the picture…..

John scored in the top 20…..no easy contest. The name Unisong may not mean much to some of you but this competition is run by serious songwriting professionals and judged by the likes of Desmond Child (Jimmy Barnes, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Cher, Kiss, Robbie Williams, Hall and Oates, Ricky Martin, Kelly Clarkson) and Dianne Warren (Elton John, Tina Turner, Streisand, Aretha Franklin, Mary J Blige, Christine Aguilera).

As well as placing in the top 20 rock category with 'Last Days Of Summer' John also got a high honourable mention (top 15%) for 'Brothers And Sisters' in same category. Both songs on John's album 'Hope Harbour' which you can buy from http://www.johnharleyweston.com/purchase.htm or they are available as digital download - see above link for options.

Make no mistake - when you're consistently getting national AND international songwriting awards you're doing something right. John also recently received high level Honourable Mention from Billboard World Songwriting Contest 2006. It seems the overseas market are really taking notice of John Harley Weston. Who's going to be the first major publisher/record company to put an offer on the table…..we'll let you know.
