Created By Songwriters For Songwriters
As songwriters we understand the advantages of finding new opportunities in the music business.
Even so, we seriously question the value of large commercial competitions — those so-called "song lotteries" that solicit 20,000 to 30,000 entries each year. They boast endless hype, but provide no real way for the entrants to know if their songs are thoroughly reviewed or fairly considered.
Another problem with the "Big-Cash-Prize" competitions is obvious: They reward only a very small percentage of songwriters, leaving everyone else with nothing to show for their creative effort and entry fee.
The Great American Song Contest™ is a distinctly different kind of songwriting competition — and a far better choice for most songwriters, lyricists and composers.

The Great American Song Contest: A Brief History
As a trusted educational resource for songwriters, Songwriters Resource Network in 1998 set out to create a better songwriting contest, one that would offer real advantages to songwriters and serve as a practical alternative to the Big-Cash-Prize competitions.
In 1999 the Great American Song Contest™ was announced, quickly gaining a reputation as a "genuinely rewarding song contest that provides opportunities for songwriters to develop and promote their songs."
In the 15 years that followed the Great American Song Contest established a worldwide reputation as a highly recommended International songwriting event that benefits EVERY songwriter, lyricist and composer who participates.
