DICTATOR are aiming to retain their status as Song of the Year winners after making the shortlist once again.

The West Lothian band lifted the prize last year and could make it two from two, having been nominated alongside 15 other incredible acts from the Scottish music scene.

As with last year, and with the Single of the Year winners this year, the winner of the 2021 Song of the Year Award will be invited to work with Barry Frame and Forth Valley College, to have a new track recorded and mastered.
