Several standout honors were awarded throughout the night, including a rare tie for Songwriter of the Year between Buggy Jive and Caity Gallagher. Album of the Year was presented to Zan & The Winter Folk for “New Morse Code,” the group’s debut full-length album released in August. Two community initiatives earned Merit Awards: Diver Library’s “Let’s Make a Song” project and No One You Know’s “Tortured Poets” concert series, both recognized for their inclusive, mental health-focused approaches to music-making.
