Casio Launches Prize Competition for Singer Songwriters

Posted: Wednesday 30th April

Casio UK has announced the return of its beloved singer-songwriter competition, Casio Sessions.  Applications are now open, so Casio is inviting all UK-based piano-playing songwriters to enter for a chance to win the top prize.

Now in its third year, Casio Sessions is excited to continue the momentum, giving a new group of musicians the opportunity to showcase their talents for a chance to win a fantastic prize: a Casio PX-S7000 piano, worth £2,249, plus an exclusive mastering studio session for their winning song, with the song then pressed to a limited run of vinyl- courtesy of competition partner and physical music manufacturer Breed Media.

Musicians can now enter online by submitting a video of them performing an original composition on the piano - covers will not be accepted. Twelve musicians will then be picked to perform in the live final at the stylish east London jazz bar, Ninety One Living Room, on Wednesday 17th September 2025.

Finalists will perform in front of a crowd of passionate music fans and a panel of judges, who will assess them on their songwriting and technical skills as well as their stage presence.  During their performance, the artists will use Casio’s award-winning PX-S7000, in the stunning Harmonious Mustard finish, the same model that the lucky winner will take home.

For the past two years, the judges have been so blown away by the talent on display that they have been unable to choose just one winner, and two artists have taken home the top prize.  Last year, Crispin Burton and Dilettante (aka Francesca Pidgeon) were crowned the winners.  Crispin captivated the audience with his deeply personal rendition of ‘If You Hear My Voice' and Dilettante got the audience swaying along to her soulful ballad, ‘I’m in Love with Falling In Love'.  Since winning the competition, Dilettante has released a new album, ‘Life of the Party’, and Crispin is working on an exciting new music project - so expect to hear from him soon.

Casio Sessions is open now.  Musicians can enter the competition here and until the 31st July to enter, T&C’s apply, please visit casio-sessions for more information.
