Joel Plaskett, your choice for Best Songwriter, isn’t shy about letting fans into the process. Recording his last album, Scrappy Happiness included making short, informal videos in (and out of) the studio and posting them online. Songwriters-in-training could get a sneak peek into what it takes to make a hit, and if the videos were any indication, it includes oranges, trips to the Superstore and one (or two) rock and roll monkeys. Hey man, don’t ask me, all I know is that you don’t mess with success.
Gold Winner Joel Plaskett
