With RayLynn Records as a sponsor, the Cantinas Ranch Foundation has invited aspiring artists, starting June 1, 2013, to record a video singing their original worship song then submit it to the Cantinas Music Festival website. From hundreds of national entries, 3 contestants will be chosen to perform at the festival with all expenses paid. The 3 finalists will sing their original content during the performance-filled festival in front of an all-star celebrity panel of judges that have previously included Kathie Lee Gifford of the Today Show, actress Candace Cameron Bure, and T.V./Feature Literary Agent Michael Van Dyck. The judges will choose 1 winner who will take home the grand cash prize of $2,000 and a coveted recording contract with the festival sponsor, RayLynn Records.

"We are extremely excited to sponsor such a great Christian music festival," said Tammy Collie, VP of Operations and Management at RayLynn Records. "There are so many talented performers who have entered the Worship Song Talent Competition and we are looking forward to welcoming this year's winner into the RayLynn family."
