Press Release - Lynette Diaz
May 26, 2009

'Living Before Dying' takes home an Honorable Mention in the The 12th Annual Unisong International Songwriting Contest in the Social/Political music category.

Singer-Songwriter, Lynette Diaz, of Christchurch, New Zealand has come away with a second songwriting honorable mention in 2009 for the song, 'Living Before Dying'

A.R. Scott of Unisong had this to say about all the winning songs. “This year featured a very high overall quality of songs and writers, with diverse and varied entries from a multitude of countries representing every continent on Earth except Antarctica (any songwriting penguins out there?). The judging therefore was extremely competitive and to be singled out anywhere in the top 15% of all songs submitted was no easy feat.”

Lynette comments, “I chose to submit 'Living Before Dying' in the social/political category of this year’s Unisong contest, as I believe the song's main message is one of Universal community and dignity. I’ve previously stated that one person can make a difference in the world, and that many of us, resonating with the spirit of social and moral justice, can create positive large scale changes.”

'Living Before Dying' is featured on Lynette's debut 14-track CD, "Lyrics In My Head", which is available direct from the artist or online outlets, including CDbaby.com, Itunes and Amazon.com
