Now in its 10th year, The Songwriting Prize, presented by the award-winning mental health music charity Listen Up Music, is more than just a competition. It's a vibrant community where songwriters can share their personal stories through music, all while showcasing some of Australia's finest songwriting talent to delighted audiences.
Each year, songwriters are invited to submit original works based on a specific theme. This year, we're exploring "Growth," a theme that promises to inspire powerful and introspective musical narratives.
Your Semi Final line up is: Alice Cotton, Camp Dog, Crystal Robins, Emma Rowe, Emmy Ryan, Sally Balfour, The Wanted Gems.
A live panel of esteemed industry judges will provide valuable feedback on each performance. The winner from this event will then go on to compete in the Grand Final, sharing in a prize pool of over $45,000, with the chance to be crowned the overall winner.
With Semi Final events taking place in Adelaide, Brisbane, Cairns, Canberra, Darwin, Gold Coast, Hobart, Melbourne, Newcastle, and Perth, join us to experience an unforgettable evening of live performances featuring the best songs from your region. You'll not only hear incredible music, but also the personal stories that inspired each piece.
The minds in music matter.
