Also on the esteemed panel of judges are top industry execs Sylvia Rhone (President, Epic Records), Craig Kallman (Chairman/CEO, Atlantic Records), Dan McCarroll (President, Warner Bros. Records), Jeff Castelaz (President, Elektra Records), and many more.

Submit your best song by September 10, 2015 to join the ranks of Kimbra, Kasey Chambers, the Band Perry, Gotye, and The Parlotones as an ISC winner.
