Now over 10 year's old, Songsalive! is the world’s largest non-profit educational organization dedicated to the support and promotion of songwriters and composers worldwide. Songsalive! holds workshops where songwriters gather to share their songs, gain feedback and develop relationships within the songwriting communities we have created around the world. The workshop includes an in-the-round song critique session where writers present one song each - either on tape, CD or live - and receive professional, constructive feedback on your song by a music industry professional (Guest speakers from various arenas of the music industry give their time to give feedback, educate and provide opportunities and insight). This workshop is also a Songsalive! Songshop session, as our speaker is looking for songs.

This is your chance to develop your songwriting in a supportive and intimate environment, meet invaluable music industry experts, network with fellow members, and be part of your local songwriters community. The Songsalive! Los Angeles Workshop is moderated by Paul Lawrence Moyer on the third Sundays of every month, and this month we are delighted to welcome Industry Guest Speaker
