Daywind Announces Winners of Quartet Talent Contest
Hendersonville, TN (February 29th, 2016) –Daywind Music Group is pleased to announce five winners of the Daywind Quartet Talent Contest, held in anticipation of the Daywind Quartet Festival at the Greenbrier.

Entries came in from not only across the country, but also as far away as Chile, for a chance to open at the Daywind Quartet Festival at the Greenbrier in April. Fans were then given the opportunity to vote for each video by ‘liking’ it on Facebook. Cumulatively, the videos received over 21,000 votes by the end of the contest!
The top five groups, as determined by Facebook likes, were The Kings Seven from Kentucky, Justified Quartet from Michigan, the Convention Quartet from Indiana, Redeemed Quartet from Indiana and Evidence of Grace from North Carolina.
