This month's meeting is really something no one should miss!!  Join us to hear Roy Elkins, music industry veteran and founder of Broadjam, and find out how to effectively create and market your songs and improve your odds. Elkins will draw from data characteristics from more than 20,000 songs that have been successfully pitched in the music industry — data that doesn’t lie. He'll also look at characteristics of the most commonly placed songs (they’re not necessarily what you’d think), review writing techniques, and address any questions you might have about licensing, Broadjam or the industry.
Also, be sure to get in your songs to be critiqued by industry pros Barbe McMillen and Joe Milton and considered for the 2023 Member Song Contest and Songwriter of the Year.  Please Note: You must go to the Dallas Songwriters website (see link below) to enter your song, or you can play them live.  When you go to the website look for "Forms" on the upper right-hand corner of the page then point to "Song Critiques" and the form will show up.  You can type in the lyrics or cut & paste.  For the song audio go to "Choose File" and load your audio file(s).  You can pay online via the critique form, and the cost is $10 per song.
