Los Angeles, Calif. (July 9, 2013) - The Cantinas Music Festival is gearing up for its second annual weekend of music on August 24, 2013 in Paso Robles, California. Back by popular demand, the festival will feature a Worship Song Talent Contest where contestants will have the opportunity to compete and win a $2,000 grand prize and a recording contract with RayLynn Records.
