Jamal Mathis, local jazz pianist, has received the ASCAPlus award. According to the official ASCAP website, this award is bestowed upon those who are either:
- Active writers in the early and mid stages of their careers
- Established writers whose main activity is outside of broadcast media;
and
- is available to those writers who earn less than $25,000 in annual domestic performance royalties.
Jamal won in the jazz category (there are also concert and popular music categories). In addition to the recognition, he pulled in a hefty award sum of $100. Don't spend it all in one place, Jamal. In fact, you should probably use that to invest in stocks. Here's a good one.
