Dear songwriter,
We’re determined to continue supporting songwriters everywhere and are dedicated to helping you on your songwriting journey – no matter what step you’re on. In order to do so, and to survive these challenging times for publishers and content providers, we’ve launched a brand new subscription service.
It’s now over a decade since we launched our website and digital magazine, and the only reason we’re still here is because of you, our readers and community. That is why we have put so much thought into how we can offer you genuine value for money.
Together, with your help, we’ll be able to provide even more of the content you already love plus a whole lot more. Each of the three plans offers exclusive benefits, and this is only the start.
All that’s left is for us to thank you for getting us to this point, we can’t wait to see you in our new Songwriting universe!
Aaron & Duncan, founders of Songwriting Magazine
“A fantastic magazine for the budding or professional songwriter and performer. Love it’s geared to the industry by passionate writers… I look forward to every edition.”
