SING IT LOUD SING IT PROUD the Scugog Council fortheArtsSCAhasselectedthreewinnersforitsScugog Tribute Song Contest. The contest was announced in the summer with entries due by the end of September just in time for their world premiere at the Mayors Gala for the Arts on November 5th. The three winners are Elsa Jayne Richard MacMillan and Carol Salamone. Each winner will receive a 500 prize. The contest asked singer song-writers to show us what you love and enjoy about Scugog. It must be un- mistakeably about Scugog. The numerous entries were judged by local historian and Port Perry booster Peter Hvidsten and award-winning songwriter Katherine Wheatley. Katherine is a professional songwriter who is in high demand for her music and songwriting work- shops. Shes written and recorded over 200 songs with kids through her Youthsongs program and has produced over 30 CDs with schools across North America. Three top entries were selected. Heres your chance to get to know our winners. Elsa Jayne is a First Nation singer-song- writer from Kitchener Ontario. A member of Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation Elsa says she is proud to represent her cultural heritage in the Scugog Tribute Song Contest. Elsa isnt new to the spot- light. CBC Music dubs Elsa Jaynes music anthemic dreamy synth-pop that gets stuck in your head for days. This year has been an eventful year for Elsa Jayne.Along with winning one of the top spots in the SCA contest she has released her second album Heart as well as a music video for her song Fourteen Days. Richard MacMillan is a Pickering resi- dent who started playing the trumpet at age eight and picked up his first guitar at fifteen. Right out of high school he worked as a musician in various bands travelling across North America. Marriage and family prompted him to switch to com- puter programming but the music never left him. When he retired he was able to reconnect with the local music scene. Amazingly he had never written a complete song before the SCA contest. The hook line came to me immediately and the rest just unfolded through some trial and error with the lyr- ics and phrasing. I am extremely thrilled to hear that my song was one of the selected winning entries. Carol Salamone is well-known to the lo- cal music and theatre scene for the past thirty years. She is the founder and musi- cal director of Cadenza Productions and since retiring from the Durham District School Board she hasnt stopped.
