Quote to Inspire: "I wish I were one of those people who wrote songs quickly. But I'm not. So it takes me a great deal of time to find out what the song is." -- Leonard Cohen.
- Welcome March, Songwriters!🎵
Songwriting brings together creators from around the globe, united by a shared passion for music. We’re happy to welcome many new members and UKSC trial members from countries including the UK, Netherlands, Philippines, Australia, Ireland, Portugal, South Africa, Italy, Barbados, Japan, Bermuda, Finland, and South Korea. SongU is a supportive community of like-minded creators who believe in growing their craft and cheering each other on. Participating in written song evaluations, live song feedback, and private sessions gives you the added benefit of networking with hit songwriters, music publishers, producers, and fellow talented SongU members.
New!👉Suno AI for SongU Pitching: Building an AI Track While Maintaining Creative Control of Your Songwriting
In this peer mentor led workshop, veteran SongU member, Shawn Fitzgerald, introduces a practical, real-world approach to using Suno as a production tool for songs you've already written (lyrics and melody). This class is not a feedback session, copyright guidelines debate, or about having AI write your songs. It's about learning how to use Suno as a tool to create professional demo productions that support the songs you pitch. Meets Tuesday, March 10th at 8PM ET. Sign up in the Live Course Activity area. If you are unable to attend, the recording will be available to all who signed up for one week after the meeting.
SU Member Websites - Don't Leave This Easy Networking Tool Sitting Unused!📣
You still haven't created your free SongU Member website? The simple setup link is waiting in your Song Locker. Join fellow members who are already promoting themselves, networking, finding co-writers, and connecting with industry pros. And it works! Member Erica Ellis had the only song selected for our recent Kenny Chesney pitch, and you can hear "After Party" on her Member Website right now.
Submissions Open for a Golden-Ticket Cowrite 🌟
Submit your songs - or lyrics only - to the Golden Ticket Special Event Pitch for the opportunity to be selected for an exclusive opportunity to cowrite with award-winning recording artist, Tony-nominated composer, and creator for major sync placements, Lauren Lucas! Find details in the Pitching area through March 16th.
