BMI Announces Top Honors for its 67th Annual Pop Awards #BMIPopAwards https://t.co/3oS7eReIsH

— Broadcast Music Inc. (@bmi) April 3, 2019

Sting's stunning 17 GRAMMY wins and 45 nominations range from his first career GRAMMY for "Reggatta De Blanc" for Best Rock Instrumental Performance nearly 40 years ago to his recent win for 44/876 for Best Reggae Album earlier this year. His ubiquitous hit with the Police, “Every Breath You Take,” will be celebrated during the ceremony as BMI’s most performed song, ending the 22-year run at the top by “You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling.”

“We couldn’t be more excited for this year’s ceremony, which honors the best of the best in pop music and celebrates songwriting at its finest,” said BMI president and CEO Mike O’Neill. “For the first time in 22 years, BMI has a new top song in our repertoire with Sting’s timeless hit ‘Every Breath You Take,’ a remarkable achievement that solidifies its place in songwriting history. It’s a milestone that demands a special tribute.”

“We are also thrilled to celebrate the groundbreaking artistry and creative vision of Imagine Dragons," added O'Neill, "Who have become one of the most compelling rock bands of the last decade and a most deserving recipient of our President’s Award."

A notable champion for songwriters, Bandier will become the first-ever executive to recieve BMI's Icon Award. He currently serves as Chairman/CEO of Sony/ATV Music Publishing since 2007 following a lengthy and successful stint at EMI Music Publishing. Earlier this year, Bandier was honored by the Songwriter Hall Of Fame with the Visionary Leadership Award.

The 67th annual BMI Pop Awards will take place May 14 at The Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills, Calif.

The legendary body of work collected during the life and career of Alan Lomax is about to reach a whole new generation. The Alan Lomax Archives have announced an exciting content partnership with "Little" Steven Van Zandt's TeachRock and Rock and Roll Forever Foundation. 

Under the new partnership, The Association For Cultural Equity in conjunction with the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress will provide content to TeachRock to be utilized in creating lesson plans and other teaching resources.

Working directly with teachers and schools TeachRock incorporates music into core curriculum by distributing lesson plans and other educational materials.Van Zandt, who is best known for his role as longtime guitarist with Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band, is an ardent supporter of music education. Perhaps the Boss describes the program best.

“[Little Steven’s] TeachRock program brings an essential curriculum of music and culture into school and makes it available at no cost to educators,” Springsteen said as he inducted Van Zandt into the New Jersey Hall of Fame last year. “In a time of cutbacks in arts funding, Steve’s programs are keeping kids engaged in the arts, and in school — this is his greatest legacy.”

Van Zandt's Rock and Roll Forever Foundation also offers teachers and school administrators workshops to introduce the concept of arts integration for culturally responsive pedagogy using their TeachRock curriculum. Wasting no time in their new partnership, the first four lesson plans developed from the Lomax Archive's resources are already available, and more are in development.
