The APRA AMCOS Emily Burrows Award was instituted in 2001 in memory of Emily Burrows, a former APRA membership representative and compliance officer. Emily worked tirelessly to support and encourage local songwriters and composers, and tragically passed away in an accident. A $5,000 award is given each year to recognise and further the professional development of eligible original SA music artists or bands. The award is shortlisted by the APRA AMCOS Adelaide office and Writer Services, with the final act being selected by Gary Burrows (Emily’s father and previous APRA employee for SA).
