On October 18, the Gospel Music Association honored 15 ASCAP songwriters with 10 awards across the Christian music genre spectrum.
Among the big winners were David Garcia, a past ASCAP Christian Music Songwriter of the Year, who took home two Dove trophies; Ryan Stevenson, whose "Eye of the Storm" earned Pop/Contemporary Recorded Song of the Year, just weeks after he performed it at our Christian Music Awards; and Reba McEntire, a past winner of the prestigious ASCAP Golden Note Award.
