ADISQ is joining forces with the Intercollegiate Network of Sociocultural Activities of Quebec (RIASQ) to create a brand new prize that will be awarded at the Gala de l’Industrie on November 2.
Posted at 1:48 p.m.
The College Song of the Year Award will be given to an emerging artist whose song has been chosen by several hundred CEGEP students. It comes with a $5,000 scholarship.
ADISQ selected the 25 pieces in the running from works by artists with two albums or less to their credit.
“Allowing students to analyze the texts of our new artists while allowing them to develop their critical sense is an absolutely gratifying opportunity for ADISQ and very promising for the future”, underlined Julie Gariépy, executive producer and director of ADISQ gala.
