Todd Wright is a professional songwriter signed to Warner Chappell Music Publishing and has written songs with artists on Verve, Epitaph, Atlantic and Motown/Universal.  He is also 40-yrs old.
 
How does his song "I Can't Breathe" with Katherine Thorsey qualify for a SAW Young Artist Award?  Shouldn't this honor be reserved for talented young writers who actually write their own songs?
