What does it really take to build a sustainable career as a songwriter today?
This session brings together working songwriters to tackle the questions that matter: balancing writing for others with developing your own project, finding where the income actually comes from, standing out in an increasingly competitive market, and navigating a creative landscape being reshaped by AI.
The speakers share practical insights from their own careers—covering both the creative and business realities of songwriting, from collaboration and identity to revenue streams and long-term career development.
The session continues with a 30-minute one-to-one demo listening session in a live queue format. Sign up on the spot to present your music directly to the speakers and receive honest, constructive feedback.
