As well as receiving the cash prize, she was also able to record her winning song “From Me Now” in our studio. Throughout the years this scholarship has been able to make a difference in many young people’s lives and given them the encouragement they needed to pursue music.

I love watching musicians thrive! It’s especially gratifying to see young musicians finding themselves. Over the last 32 years I have been able to witness the power of community when we support each other in our craft, in particular the craft of songwriting. The Songwriters Association of Mid-North Indiana has supported countless youth since its inception in 1992. This morning I was blessed to work with Brooks Burnette, an inspiring young engineer, producer & creator. Brooks is a senior at The Greater Lafayette Career Academy. Part of his graduation requirements are to work as an Intern at REC Room Recording located at The Arts Federation - TAF. He is phenomenal at what he does and will continue his studies at Purdue University Fort Wayne next year!
Proud of you Brooks! Can’t wait to see what your future brings.

2023 was a great year for us and we are so thankful for all of the opportunities that came with it! We hosted the Shirley Martin scholarship award ceremony for winners Maddy Conner, Corbin Stanchfield, Carly Bryant, and Faith Elizabeth Terborg. Nashville producer Matt Coles tracked for an upcoming song by Scott Greeson with help from Lee Anna Atwell and Malachi Jaggers. We had our 2nd DIY Workshop with teaching from Ronan Chris Murphy, Steven Memel, and Liz Redwing. Got to work with lots of great artists in our studio including Atlys, Bill McFadden, Gabrielle Elise, Eric Hicks, Lauren Grace, Freakonomics radio, and so many more. We also had our first intern ran live show in December and several other great events throughout the year. Thank you so much for your support! Excited to see what this new year brings.

What a fun time in the studio at REC Room Recording with these guys! Nashville producer / recording engineer, Matt Coles, was at the controls working with Scott Greeson Music on his song, Never Change, that will release in 2024. Lee Anna Atwell Music (not pictured) added a beautiful piano track and Malachi Jaggers rocked a bass track! (on my Lakland!!) I'll add harmony vocals to the mix in the near future. The guys also worked on a new song by Joe Peters & Friends. Another fun creation that will be available soon. I love these times of creativity!
