Dr. Gannon, thank you for this great generosity.
I'm proud to be a part of this group and humbled
by all the talented folks here.
I've loved using Band In A Box for many years now.
It's still the go to, the one, the best out there
even after all these years and it continues to
amaze me with each new version.
thank you so much,
Kenny

Thank you Dr. Gannon and all the staff at PG Music. To be included on this list is not only an honor, but is humbling to be included in a group of such talented and gracious people.
I seriously doubt there is a more generous, rewarding and honorable company in any retail business. Please note that my appreciation goes not only to - THE ENTIRE STAFF @ PG MUSIC - but also to my fellow forum colleagues who give mutually to each other with education, confidence, encouragement and respect. They have helped me grow in so many different ways - most of which would not have been possible without PG Music and it's wonderful products and the gift of this site.
Many thanks to the PG Music Family and the Family of Friends & Musicians on the forums.

I did not expect to be doing this today, and I can honestly say, I was completely flabbergasted when I realized I was included in this list. I want to thank each and every person even remotely connected to this fabulous software, with all my heart. BIAB & RB has enabled many, many musicians of all skill sets, to hear in real time, what they can hear in their heart and minds. I salute each and every one of the veterans and experts who have helped me along the way. Their input has been invaluable to me and I know to many others. I feel honored to be in such company. Thank you, one and all.

Dear Peter and all the PG Music staff.
Thank you so much for this wonderful gift. I have said so many times before how this software and this company has changed my musical life forever. It continues to give and give. I am looking forward to "wowing" all those folks on the FAWM forum with what this product can do and to continue to spread the good word about it to all who will listen.
Congrats to all the winners. I am honored to be included in this list.
Have a wonderful 2018

It is astounding to see that a company in this day and age genuinely cares about their customers. To all the winners CONGRATULATIONS on a job well done. To all that continue to follow or participate in the forum, thanks for making this such a rewarding experience. It's almost hard to believe the consideration and kindness that has been shown here in this wonderful community of writers, musicians, and producers. I believe we are all truly lucky to have found this product and this forum, Tom

We deeply appreciate the honor and what PG Music has brought into our lives. Six years ago we never dreamed we would ever write and record music again. The passing of our friend and mentor Randy Howard and subsequently leaving our band had taken away our music making desire. But we continued to listen to and enjoy many musical genres. We switched from a PC to a Mac and it came with a DAW....hmmmm...I explored it out of curiosity, googled it a bit and ran across mention of BiaB. So now in addition to our love of the outdoors we have this wonderful product that has led us on a musical journey we never dreamed of. And that journey includes making forum friends that have become much more than virtual "net friends."
Customer service and satisfaction are easy words to say. Meeting those expectations is something that relative few companies do well. Dr. Gannon and staff present an example of what can be done when the focus is genuinely not only on a great product but also on those individuals who use that product.
Thanks again. It means a lot!!

Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos

Thank you PG Music for your generosity. I am really honored to be included in the award list. BIAB has given me really much joy as a songwriter. I published almost 40 songs last year with BIAB arrangement. And not joy for me only: last year it gave me also opportunity for intensive collaboration. I arranged several songs with BIAB for Miira and one of them (introduced on this forum Letters To Johny) got an honorable mention in the SongDoor songwriting competition, I believe that the BIAB arrangement gave that song an extra push. Congratulation to other winners and thanks to all amazing showcase forum contributors for your music and feedback. Janne

As I read all of the comments about this award and the winners I try to say something different but there's no use. Just about everything has been very well said.
Thanks you Peter and all the staff for this amazing honor.

Many thanks to all of you of PG Music for this beautiful gift. I look back to four/five years ago;I was trying several music programs when I ran into Band in a Box. I look at today and I can consider the great musical improve I have had. My compositions give me great satisfaction and fun. BiaB is absolutely irreplaceable (and I don't look for other programs anymore  Compliments to all the winners, a great group of people. I am just sorry regret that we can communicate via pc. Sometimes I think what could come out if we could play together live! Sergio

Congratulations to all the winners. Well done. Looking forward to what's to come this year.
And a huge KUDOS to the best company in the music software biz. PG Music is the only company I know of that does this.
Again.... Congrats to all the winners this year.

202 New RealTracks Released with Band-in-a-Box 2026!
With Band-in-a-Box® 2026, we've released 202 incredible new RealTracks (in sets 468-488) in a variety of genres—featuring your most requested styles!
Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
The 2026 49-PAK is loaded with other great new add-ons as well. Learn more about the 2026 49-PAK!
