FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (JUNE 22, 2022) — Daywind Music Publishing is celebrating its amazing songwriters Jason Cox, Joseph Habedank, and John Darin Rowsey, who were recently recognized by BMI for their work on some of the most performed songs in Christian music last year. 

BMI, one of the largest performing rights organizations, collects royalties from radio, television, and other performances.  BMI honored these three Daywind Music Publishing writers at the 2022 BMI Christian Awards celebration, presented at BMI’s Nashville location on June 15, 2022.
