This is real, I swear! Boehringer Ingelheim contest seeks COPD songs


Boehringer Ingelheim is partnering with the Country Music Association for a Tune Up For COPD Songwriting Competition featuring country music stars Billy Ray Cyrus (pic) and Patty Loveless.
The contest is soliciting “songs with a motivational message that encourages people to be proactive in taking control of their lives and be healthy,” and the winner will perform it live at the CMA Music Festival in Nashville in June. Contestants can upload their videos and lyrics sheets to tuneup4copd.cmaworld.com, and a “fan favorite” will be determined by the highest number of online votes and showcased online. The overall winner will be selected by a panel of judges including Cyrus, Loveless, industry experts and members of participating organizations including the American Association for Respiratory Care, Country Music Association, COPD Alliance, COPD Foundation, NASCAR and US COPD Coalition.
