2024 WINNERS


GRAND PRIZE

Flowers On The Moon

AJ Mitchell
USA

AJ Mitchell, a rising pop singer/songwriter from Belleville, IL, is the 2024 Unsigned Only Grand Prize winner for the emotional ballad "Flowers On The Moon" that blends poetic imagery with his smooth, souldful vocals. Only 23 years old, Mitchell first gained recognition through YouTube and Instagram, and his meteoric rise on social media has showcased his raw talent, allowing him to build a loyal fanbase from a early age. Mitchell's songs, which often explore themes of love, heartbreak, and self-discovery, resonate with his listeners, particularly young audiences who relate to his authenticity and vulnerability. 

His debut studio album, Skyview, was released in 2021 and demonstrates Mitchell's melodic, heartfelt style that blends pop with elements of R&B. As he continues to evolve as an artist, he is establishing himself as one of the bright new voices in contemporary pop music, and his newest album is set to be released soon. 

Congratulations to AJ Mitchell!
