Welcome to another edition of Songsalive! SONGNOTES, our regular newsletter for everything you need to know about the craft and business of songwriting.
"School's out for summer! School's out forever!" When you hear those words, you immediately think of the Alice Cooper song, "School's Out." Are you lyrics memorable? Would you like feedback on your lyrics or like to learn from a professional? Are you looking for a lyricist with whom to collaborate?
Through our Songcraft program, you can watch videos to hone your songwriting craft and learn more about the business. There is even a video of Motown songwriter, Clay Drayton, from one of our Los Angeles workshops, lecturing on "How to Write Picturesque Verses." You can also receive feedback on your lyrics or network with other songwriters at our workshops and find someone with whom to collaborate or receive a song critique through our Songpool program as well. Songsalive! is here to help!
In this edition of SONGNOTES, we have a new partner, Top Track. Find out more about them and what they have to offer for our Pro Members below. We also have more Songshop opportunities, news, and information about our upcoming events!
Get song leads where music business professionals (record labels, publishers, film producers and music supervisors) hunt songs from the Songsalive! song pool. Also, listings of cool gigs, jobs, music and marketing opportunities. We give you the contact directly. No screeners, no walls. Direct songwriter to business pitch.
