February 20, 2009
Lynette Diaz takes home an 'Honorable Mention' in the 2008 Peacedriven Songwriting Contest

--The 2008 Peacedriven Songwriting awards have been announced, and Lynette Diaz, from Christchurch, New Zealand, has been awarded an Honorable Mention in this year's contest for her song 'Living Before Dying'.

According to Peacedriven's website, "The Peacedriven Campaign is a grassroots effort with projects including the Peacedriven Songwriting Award, recognizing songwriters that use music to inspire social change!"

Out of more than 400 entries in the 2008 Peacedriven Songwriting Contest, 'Living Before Dying' is among the top songs embodying the mission of peace through social change.

Lynette comments, "My outlook on Life is always quite positive. I do feel that one person can make a difference in the world, and that many of us resonating with the spirit of social and moral justice can create positive large scale changes. It starts with our individual hearts in the right place, and radiates out into the Universal whole."

'Living Before Dying' is featured on Lynette's debut 14-track CD, "Lyrics In M Head", which is available direct from the artist or online outlets, including CDbaby.com, Itunes and Amazon.com
