Welcome to the Catapult Song Contest

Replicat's 2012 Catapult Song Contest has been run and won!

Congratulations to Ainslie Wills for her song 'Fighting Kind' - the Overall Winner of Catapult in 2012.

We made some carefully designed changes this year, with wildcard, peer choice and best supporting artists making up most of the places in the Final 30. These peer votes had a major impact on the contest, with Ainslie also winning the Peer Choice award for the most votes from other entrants.

Our congratulations to Hayden Calnin, Ash Ball and Matt Harrison for picking up this year's other major awards. The random shuffle (on the right over there) will show the Top 30 from this 2012 until the next contest commences. The standard of music this year was exceptional, so have a browse through and enjoy some great Australian music.

Voting has now closed for 2012, but you can still create an artist page and promote your new songs via the Catapult site all year round.
