Brandon Wins Emmy for "Give Me Your Eyes" PSA Campaign Posted February 10, 2010
Brandon recently won an Emmy Award for his hit song “Give Me Your Eyes,” which served as the catalyst for Nashville Rescue Mission’s Hunger to Hope 2009 PSA Campaign, produced by NewsChannel 5’s Jerry L. Walker, WTVF-TV (CBS).
Brandon says, “Having my song included in a PSA talking about serving the poor was hugely rewarding. The Emmy is a nice statue, loving Nashville’s homeless is monumental. I’m especially grateful to WTVF NewsChannel 5, and Jackie Pillers, and to Jerry Walker for the idea.”
The Nashville/Midsouth Chapter of The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS) presented their 24th Annual Midsouth Regional Emmy Awards on Saturday, January 30, at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center.
The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences is a non-profit, professional organization dedicated to fostering excellence in television. The academy has 19 chapters with 15,000 members nationwide. The Nashville/Midsouth Region encompasses the States of North Carolina (except Asheville) and Tennessee, and northern Alabama. This year’s nominations resulted in 74 awards for 30 companies in 68 categories. The ballots, tabulated by Jennifer Lane of Decosimo Vaden, were judged by the Northwest Chapter of NATAS, based in Seattle, Washington.
