You are invited to attend the Fifth annual Nashville SongWriters Festival this June 13-17.
You are also invited to the Open House On Music Row June 16 & 17 where publishers, song pluggers and radio host will be accepting your unsolicited CD's for consideration. Other music related businesses will also be represented such as recording studios, Independent record labels, etc. so check out the "Open House" link at the web site.
There are multiple outdoor stages with scheduled play slots available. There are also unscheduled open sing rings that you can join in or create so that all who come get their chance to be heard.
Peavey has donated an acoustic guitar to the Fest for us to do with as we please. All I can figure out to do in good conscience is to give the guitar away in the spirit it was given to one of the festival attendees. We will be holding a free drawing on Sunday at 6 PM. You don't have to be present to win but you do need to be present to register for the drawing, so stop by and throw your name in the hat. Approximate value $500.
There is a lot more to the fest, featured hit writers, (Universal, BMG, etc...) and other surprises await. The real featured writer is you. We have guest coming from Australia, Ireland, Canada and all parts of the US. Come welcome your brothers and sisters. Come make our fifth year a big hippie music love fest of original songs.
Also come join in our annual sunrise Christian Music Segment Sunday June 17 from 6AM to Noon. This years music service is shaping up to be miraculous. Although the fest is open to all genres of music and all forms of songwriting their is a special emphasis on Christian original songs Sunday AM.
The festival is contribution based. Each writer decides what they can do to be a part of the fest and help make it happen. The most important contribution is you being there, supporting each other and celebrating in song. We do not let money get in the way of sharing our music. The fest is what you make it.
You are also invited to attend the pre fest Writers Retreat June 13-15. We have enlarged the class room size to accommodate as many who wish to come or can get off from their day jobs. Turn of the century Scarritt-Bennett Center, a block over and up from the Curb Music Stage location. Pro instructors will be sharing what they have learned in the music biz for three days just before the big weekend fest. The Writers Retreat is also contribution based.
