GMS Awards
The Barbie ballad “What Was I Made For?” by Billie Eilish and Finneas won best song written and/or recorded for a film at the 2024 Guild of Music Supervisors Awards, which were held at the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday (March 3). The awards, now in their 14th year, celebrate the craft of music supervision in film, television, documentaries, advertising, trailers and video games.
“What Was I Made For?” is the front-runner to win the Oscar for best original song on March 10. If it does, it will be the third GMS winner to go on to win the Oscar, following “City of Stars” from La La Land and “Shallow” from A Star Is Born.

Eilish and Finneas accepted the award in person and thanked music supervisors for placing their songs in films and TV, dating back to Eilish’s first hit, “Ocean Eyes.” Finneas said, “If we owe our careers to any group of people, it really in all honesty is music supervisors.”
This being the GMS Awards, the award for best song written and/or recorded for a film also went to Barbie music supervisor George Drakoulias, who won a second award for his work on that blockbuster: best music supervision for a film budgeted over $25 million. Drakoulias thanked many people, including executives at Atlantic Records. “If you have a chance to make a soundtrack, make it with Kevin Weaver, because he’s a pitbull. We would do these weekly calls and [it] was like ‘this was an embarrassment of riches.’ Everybody said yes.”
Other double winners on the night were Toko Nagaro (Joy Ride, Totally Killer), Frankie Pine (Daisy Jones & The Six) and Alex Hackford (Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 video game).
Two months after winning a Primetime Emmy for outstanding music supervision for The White Lotus, Gabe Hilfer received a GMS Award for best music supervision, television drama for his work on the HBO Max series.
The Icon Award was presented posthumously to Robbie Robertson, who is nominated for an Oscar for best original score for his work on Killers of the Flower Moon. Rocco DeLuca and Johnny Sheppard performed the hushed “They Don’t Live Long” from Killers. Margo Price, Robert Randolph and Jairus Mozee performed Robertson’s “Evangeline,” which Emmylou Harris introduced in the 1978 film The Last Waltz. Robertson’s award was accepted by his three grown children, Alexandra, Delphine and Sebastian, all of whom have built successful careers in the music field. Previous recipients of the Icon Award include Paul Williams, Diane Warren, Quincy Jones, Burt Bacharach, Kenny Loggins and Marc Shaiman.
The Legacy Award went to music supervisor Allan Mason, who has worked on more than two dozen films, including several that were directed by Barry Levinson, among them Good Morning, Vietnam, Rain Man and Bugsy. Some of the vintage songs Levinson found for movies later became major hits, including Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World” from Good Morning, Vietnam and The Proclaimers’ “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)” from Benny & Joon. Mason took to the stage wearing a Strawberry Alarm Clark T-shirt and carrying his beloved dog, Benny. (“I feel without a doubt he’s here and I’m his +1,” Mason said of Benny.) Previous recipients of the Legacy Award include Pilar McCurry, Mitchell Leib, Maureen Crowe, Bob Hunka, Joel Sill, Gary Lemel and Chris Montan.
Jonathan Finegold won best music supervision for a documentary for Little Richard: I Am Everything. “The king of rock’n’roll is Black and he’s gay, and we need to realize that,” Finegold said. He also fessed up that when he was 11 and 12 and was supposed to be listening to instructional cassettes to study for his bar mitzvah, he was actually listening to Barry White’s Greatest Hits, Abbey Road and Hot Rocks.
Dan Wilson performed his nominated song “It Never Went Away” from the film American Symphony, which he co-wrote with Jon Batiste. Batiste is set to perform it on the Oscars, where it is nominated for best original song. India Carney performed her nominated song “I Found You” from the Showtime series The L Word: Generation Q. Spotlight Performer d4vd, signed to Interscope/Darkroom, performed “Romantic Homicide.” Tia P performed a rap song, “Stay Ready,” which served as a thank-you to the event’s sponsors, each of whom got a name-check in the song.
Presenters included Mark Ronson, Tyrese Gibson, Nia Vardalos, Ben Platt & Noah Galvin, Luca Guadagnino, PJ Morton, RuPaul’s Drag Race’s Crystal Methyd, Freddy Scott, Ryan Lott of Son Lux and Volker Bertelmann.
The event was produced by the Guild of Music Supervisors Awards production committee – president Lindsay Wolfington (who won an award as the music supervisor of Theater Camp), vice president Heather Guibert, plus Joel C. High and Janet Lopez. Show production is handled by Angelia Bibbs-Sanders from ABS Collective with talent producer Julie Donsky and technical production by Nick Urbom from Big Push Media Group.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Elvis lead the 2023 Guild of Music Supervisors Awards nominations with three nods each – best music supervision for film budgeted over $25 million, best song written and/or recorded for a film, and best music supervision in a trailer – film.
Ten songs were nominated for best song written and/or recorded for a film. Four of them were shortlisted for Academy Awards in December. (Oscar nods will be announced Tuesday, Jan. 24, including closely watched songs by megastars Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift. Those songs are, respectively, “Lift Me Up” from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever; “Hold My Hand” from Top Gun: Maverick; and “Carolina” from Where the Crawdads Sing. The fourth GMS nominee shortlisted for an Oscar is “This Is a Life” from Everything Everywhere All at Once.
The six songs that failed to make the Oscar shortlist but were recognized here are “Paper Airplanes” from A Jazzman’s Blues, “Honey to the Bee” from Catherine Called Birdy; “Vegas” from Elvis; “Turn Up the Sunshine” from Minions: The Rise of Gru; “Ready as I’ll Never Be” from The Return of Tanya Tucker; and “A Song in My Heart” from The Valet.
For the first time this year, video game composers are nominated alongside music supervisors in a new category– best music supervision in a video game (original). Four other new categories have been added – best music supervision for a non-theatrically released film; best music supervision for a trailer – series; best music supervision for a trailer – video game & interactive; and best music supervision in advertising: $500K total production & post-production budget.
GMS winners will be revealed in a ceremony at The Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday, March 5. This will be their first in-person awards event since the 2020 show, which was also at the Wiltern. The event will also be livestreamed for those who are unable to attend in person.
The awards celebrate outstanding achievement in the craft of music supervision in film, television, video games, documentaries, advertising, and trailers. Tickets are available only to members of GMS and their Friends of the Guild subscription.
“We’re so excited to be back and able to host the awards ceremony in-person at the Wiltern again!” GMS president Joel C. High and vice president Madonna Wade-Reed said in a statement. “We’ve got a great show lined up for this year which will include live performances, special tributes, and more. We’ll also be live-streaming for those unable to join us in person so they can tune in virtually. The Guild is looking forward to celebrating even more music supervisors, artists, and performers with the addition of our new categories and increase in nominees.”
Still to be announced are the GMS Icon Award and the Legacy Award bestowing recognition to an artist and a music supervisor whose role in the industry reaches excellence.
