Richie Supa Wins Prism Award for In the Rooms Song

Friday, April 24th, 2009

On Wednesday, April 23rd, the 13th Annual Prism Awards took place in Beverly Hills, CA. For those unfamiliar with the Prism Awards, they are the equivalency of the Oscars and the Grammys but for outstanding achievement in the “accurate depiction of drug, alcohol and tobacco use and addiction, as well as mental health issues, in film, television, interactive, comic book, music, and DVD entertainment,” according to the awards’ website.

One of this year’s highlights was Richie Supa’s performance of the “In the Rooms” song.  Both Richie Supa and the “In the Rooms” song were nominated for a Prism Award in the category of “Music Recording.”  When the envelope was opened and the winner announced, the crowd cheered as Richie Supa’s name, along with the “In the Rooms” song, were announced. In actuality, both Richie and Selfish Steam received Prism Awards in what was considered a tie for the category. Both founders of In the Rooms, Kenny and RT, were on hand to show their support for Richie.

Richie Supa is a world-renowned rock star that has been recording music and performing across the US and the globe for over thirty years.  His most recognized work was as lead guitarist for Aerosmith and his compilations along side Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi.  Richie wrote and recorded “In the Rooms” earlier this year especially for InTheRooms.com.

As a recovering addict, Riche Supa has openly endorsed and advocated for In the Rooms, since its inception.  If you are interested in hearing the In the Rooms song, it can be streamed live on any of the pages by clicking on the song’s play button on the top left side just above the In the Rooms logo.  Also, to find out more about Richie Supa, check out his profile “richiesupa.”
