Caitlin & Sidney Powell, a/k/a Facing West – Previous winners of COMBO’s Songwriting Contest!
The Colorado Music Business Organization announces their Fifth Annual Songwriting Contest! Do you have a song you have written and ten ($10) dollars that may help YOU out and definitely will help COMBO? Read on because this contest is for YOU!! Per previous years, there will be NO CA$H prizes for the high-scoring songs – just the opportunity for your song to be heard by people that can help you with the next step in your songwriting career! Winning songs will be submitted to *real music business companies* – like record companies, publishers, music supervisors, and more.
When: Started May 1st and Ends August 1st
What: COMBO’s 2017 5th Annual Songwriting Contest
Who: Anyone who wants to enter – You do NOT have to be in Colorado!
Cost: $10 per song – unless you’re a currently paid member then see below
Age: All ages! We’ve had winners as young as 14 (won’t say how old the oldest is!)
Limit: You can enter as many songs as you want but we reserve the right to put only 2 of yours on the compilation CD (again, see below)
Contest staff will put the Top Scoring songs on a compilation CD and hand deliver to publishers, record companies, music supervisors, and others – that have agreed beforehand to accept them – along with a cover letter telling a little about COMBO, along with lyric sheets for each of the songs. Winners will also receive one copy of the compilation CD for their use.
No “Song Writing” judges – just people who love music and are connected to the business of music. The panel will be made up of a variety of people who are music professionals in some area of the Music Industry but who do not write songs. This helps to cut possible plagiarism. Names of the judging panel are confidential and will not be shared so that the judges can not contact each other to get opinions.
