Dear Songwriter,
This is to remind you that the entry deadline for The UK Songwriting Contest 2015 is midnight 30th September. So if you haven't entered yet, or you want to enter more songs, don't forget that there are now less than two weeks left to submit your songs to this year's event.
The 2015 UK Songwriting Contest is a unique opportunity to showcase your work to the music industry in London, UK, and to have your songs examined and marked by experts. It doesn't matter where you live or if you are an experienced songwriter or a complete beginner - everyone has the same chance to have their work examined by professionals and to be discovered by top names in the music industry. Entry forms are at the official contest website at www.songwritingcontest.co.uk
Songwriters from every country can participate and everyone who enters is told the judges score for each song and gets an official UKSC Certificate with details of their song's achievements and placements. There are also valuable guaranteed gifts and prizes, worth many times the entry fee, for everyone who enters. In the words of Channel 4 Television: "The UK Songwriting Contest does what it says on the tin! This is a real chance for new songwriters to break into the music business".
