Listen to “Reason” by Angela Palivos, one of the winners of the Sweetwater songwriting contest

Mahomet-based singer-songwriter Angela Palivos has won the 2021 Sweetwater songwriting contest alongside two other winners. Her song “Reason” — co-written with her husband Kevin Sisney — is a self-described “gypsy blues” song, with a driving bass line, crisp and clear vocals, and all around wonderful mixing, but it’s the songwriting that makes the song a stand out and ultimately, a winner. 

Sweetwater is a renowned music and pro-audio equipment retailer, and Palivos’ song was recorded at Sweetwater Studios in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Take a listen to the winning song below, and check out Sweetwater’s bio on Palivos, as well as her website here
