Sixteen musicians from North Carolina and Georgia will face off on social media beginning April 5.
The Georgia Songbirds Podcast is hosting the Songwriters Showdown, a contest pitting the two states against one another.
Each week, videos from participating musicians will be uploaded to the podcastâs Facebook page, where fans will determine their favorites by viewing, liking and sharing.
Eight musicians from each state will be taking part. Among those from North Carolina, are six from the Triad.
The contest is the second such competition organized by Jesse Landers, founder and host of the podcast, which features live performances each week by independent artists from the Peach State. Last year, he pitted songwriters from Georgia against those from Tennessee.
