Philadelphia Songwriters Project 2010 Songwriting Contest

Philadelphia Songwriters Project welcomes submissions for its 2010 Songwriting Contest. We’ve had great prizes in the past, but this is our biggest exposure package ever! This year, the 2010 Winners will earn local, regional, and national performances opportunities at several venues: 2010 Theme: Love Songs Be creative! This means all kinds of love: for a child, a friend, a pet, a place, your mom, God, a lover past or present. Love here now, long ago and far away, wished for, or love gone astray. Whether it be a ballad, dance tune, chant or shanty, we want to hear your emotion expressed musically and lyrically -- anything goes. Performing Songwriters of all levels and all genres are welcome to submit. Note: We love our non-performing songwriters, but as our prizes are live shows, we request only performing songwriters enter for this contest. Performances must be able to be stripped down to accommodate some venues. Visit the PSP web site for all submission details. Deadline for submissions is April 1, 2010.
