Song Contest
January 18th, 2009 by Lior ShamirWe Are Listening currently accepts entries for three international song contests: The Singer/Songwriter Awards, Lyric Writer Awards, and World of Music Awards.
The Singer/Songwriter Awards is a song contest for songwriters writing original material with English-language lyrics in any genre. The songs may be the product of more than one songwriter and winners have a choice of six song contest prizes, including a trip to London to record the winning song. Participants are not required to be the performing artist on the recorded submission.
The Lyric Writer Awards is an English-language, lyrics-only song contest in any genre. The lyrics may be the product of more than one lyricist and winners enjoy professional publishing opportunities in the US market.
The World of Music Awards is a world music genre song contest. The songs are not required to contain words and, those that do, may be recorded and submitted in any language. All entries may be the product of a songwriting team and, like The Singer/Songwriter Awards song contest, participants are not required to be the performing artist on the recorded submission. Winners receive a fully-financed trip to world music festival, WOMEX, accompanied by one of We Are Listening’s music industry veterans.
We Are Listening also provides songwriters and performing artists with an assessment service as well as a special performance-oriented contest called Breaking the Band. All of this and more on We Are Listening’s music contest page.
