Past Hold On Talent Slam winner receives 2014 Ohio Music Award
Olivia Frances' song, “Back to Happiness” was recently chosen as the “Best Pop Song” in the 2014 Ohio Music Awards. She said, "I am humbled and honored to have won this award."
She decided to submit that particular song for consideration because it has always gotten a positive response from listeners. People seem to love the feel good, upbeat tone of the song and obviously the judges agree.
The Ohio Music Awards strive to celebrate the rich musical tradition in the State of Ohio. Each year, they award their “Best of” in numerous categories to show how music from different genres can be interwoven to tell a greater story about music in the State of Ohio.
Olivia said, “I am completely humbled and amazed by how this one song that I started writing on the front porch of my house in the summer, has blossomed into its own being. I am so grateful to receive this award and I’d like to thank my parents, family, and friends for their continuous support.”
Olivia is a member of the Nashville Singer-Songwriter Association – with chapters in Cleveland and Cincinnati – and firmly believes in their motto; “It all begins with a song.” She puts this into practice by continuing to write and create new material with the hope that another one of her songs will touch someone and help bring the world together through her music.
