Win 14 Days Recording at The Grouse Lodge

Due to the amazing quality of the material and the sheer talent out there, the judges found it extremely hard picking the winners - it was a very close call which involved some very tough decision-making. If truth be told, we would have liked to send 7 or 8 of the final artists to The Grouse Lodge, but obviously this was not possible.

Congratulations to the three Recording Festival 2017 winners:

Congratulations also go to our four Runners Up, who were close contenders for the top spots.
More category winners will be shown later.
