Join our growing community of songwriters in the NYC area. Meetings are held via Zoom and include song feedback sessions and lessons on the craft and business of songwriting. Our meetings are currently held on the first Wednesday evening of the month at 7pm (new time) Our meetings are a great opportunity to network and find potential co-writers.
We also periodically host special events. Our Songwriter Rounds/Open Mic Nights are a great opportunity to perform your original songs in a live setting. All genres, ages, and skill levels are welcome.
The Annual Chapter Challenge is an in person event held in the Spring of every year where you can compete for prizes on the chapter and national level.
In December we do our annual in person Nashville style “Guitar Pull” where we play in a big circle going around one song at a time until we finish and go around again (and sometimes a third time)
Time: 2:00 pm EST
End Time: 5:00 pm EST
Type: In-person
Join us Sunday Dec 14th at Houghton Hall Arts on 22 East 30th Street at 2pm - 5pm for our third annual Guitar Pull - this is a Nashville style event - where everyone sits in a big circle and plays one song each then goes round the circle again and again.
Join us the first Wed of the month for Song Feedback from 7pm - 9pm. We send out the link via email a few days ahead of time so you can upload your song and lyric for the meeting. All genres welcome!
