This month, I gave away keys every day to spread the word about something very important to me. My band, Attic Wolves, was nominated for a Lennon Award in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest. This part of the contest was decided by an online vote, and winning it would make us eligible for Song of the Year!

The winners were announced today, and I'm proud to say that we won the Lennon Award! I just want to say "thanks" to the community for voting, and for the kind and encouraging words I found among the oceans of "thank you" comments. It's been really cool to share our music with such a diverse and friendly community.

For those that have no idea what I'm talking about, here is the song that won: https://youtu.be/YAV7SNSjchE

We're now one of 12 artists in the running for Song of the Year, which is is decided by a panel of judges. We have to wait until July to find out who wins, but we are already so excited to have won this award. Again, thank you to the SteamGifts community! In total, there were 72 giveaways, 56,783 Entries, and 3404 Comments. Expect more in the near future!

Thank you! I play bass and am one of the 3 vocalists. We're all multi-instrumentalists, so we pass instruments around quite a bit. Recently I've been getting my hands on the upright bass, which has been a really challenging process!

Let this be an example to the young ones here, when you pray to the One True God and use him for your avatar, good things happen

Also, I think you should make a GA for some Arthur Bryant's burnt ends. That would be amazing.

Congrats and good luck!

Mmm, I'm more of an Oklahoma Joe's guy myself. You can't really go wrong with KC BBQ though!

I'm just so thankful that Cage has brought us this far. He works in amazing ways!

Edit: Come to think of it, Oklahoma Joe's has changed its name to KC Joe's.. Apparently to ease some confusion. But in reality, it just made things more confusing. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I will try to talk the rest of my American Outlaw crew into going there and checking it out when we come down in July for the CONCACAF tournament.

Fun fact: One of the other 12 Lennon Award recipients is none other than Christopher Tin. You may remember "Baba Yetu" as the theme of Civilization IV: https://youtu.be/IJiHDmyhE1A

I seriously spent so much time on the title screen just listening to that song. Honored to be in the running with so many talented folks!
