Jimmy Napes accepted awards for Songwriter of the Year and Song of the Year (“I’m Not the Only One”). Universal Tunes was named Publisher of the Year.

The awards featured performances from American Idol winner Nick Fradiani, who sang his hit, “Beautiful Life,” and Academy Award-nominated actress and singer Hailee Steinfeld who performed “Love Myself.”
