**IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT  17/07/17**

​ It is with great regret that we have made the difficult decision to close down this year’s competition.

Unfortunately, despite a significant number of entries last year, this year we have received an insufficient
number of entries to make it a viable competition. 

We hope to relaunch this at some point in the future but having discussed the above with our sponsors,
we have decided to close the competition for 2017.
  
We wish you the very best of success with your songwriting and
​hope to see you soon at one of our upcoming courses!

What's Different About The UK Unsigned Songwriter Of The Year Competition?

Picture

Live Heats And London Finals

Live music rules! 54 writers in 6 regions will be selected to compete in live heats around the UK with the finals held at a special celebrity Gala night in London.

It's All About The Song

The antidote to the TV 'karaoke' competitions! Our competition is all about the songwriter and the song. If you don’t perform yourself, you can bring your own singer or players. All we’ll be judging is your songwriting skills, not how cool you look.

Meet The Hitmakers

Live heats, semi finals and final will feature panels of multi million selling songwriters, artists, producers and music business experts from The Songwriting Academy to give you the best feedback possible.

Proceeds To Charity

Music could change the lives of our winners. And this year we’re pleased to be supporting Nordoff Robbins Music Therapy, so it can change the lives of others too!

Amazing Prizes

Our prizes are chosen not only to thrill but to give the winning writers amazing opportunities to develop their craft even further. And who could say no to a week writing songs in Andalusia, Spain!

Everybody Wins!

The Songwriting Academy has teamed up with global brand  Caffè  Nero to bring new songwriters into the spotlight, whilst raising as much money for charity as possible. We are supported by trusted organisations PRS, BASCA, and Musicians Union.
