August, 2006
Could such an exciting July have been outdone? Perhaps only this way:" While Trees Fall" won second place in the Acoustic/Folk category of the enormous Unisong International Songwriting Competition, out of thousands of international entries. The song also was also a Top 20 Winner in the contest's Social/Political Category; Robyn's unrecorded song "State of Grace" won Top 20 in the Lyrics Only category; the co-written "Say Goodbye" won honorable mention in Acoustic/Folk. The contest founder said that rarely does an artist sweep so many categories.
First place at Woody Guthrie..and more!
