the art of song writing

2014 Winner of The Avalon Guitar

We have held the draw and the lucky winner of the 2014 festival competition is Gerry McGuigan. He wins a beautiful hand-made Avalon Guitar.

Thanks to Avalon for their support of the 10th United Airlines Belfast Nashville Songwriters Festival. Several artists played an Avalon during the songwriter's festival and we've had great reports back from people who got to play the different Avalon's on display at BelNash Songtech with Dawsons. Have a look at the range online at www.avalonguitars.com or drop into Dawsons Music Belfast to play one in the shop

Thanks again to Avalon Guitars and congrats to the winner, Gerry McGuigan
