Write a song for a Major Artist?

Did you know that The UK Songwriting Contest offers a unique and significant opportunity for songwriters with its Major Artists category? This category provides a opportunity for songwriters to submit compositions tailored for globally recognised music icons.

The UKSC has excellent connections with major music industry players and it is a first point of call for many TV and radio producers, important music events organisers, publishers and labels etc. We work with many top people in the music industry and media including top TV shows. 

The UKSC invites submissions that complement the styles of established artists, both current sensations like Taylor Swift or BTS and legends from the past like Frank Sinatra or Elvis Presley. You will be asked to specify the artist on the entry form when you submit. 

For contemporary artists, winning entries and finalists will be actively promoted to the artists' team. While recording is not guaranteed, the UKSC will advocate for the winning songwriters and will initiate contact with the chosen major artists or their management team. This is your opportunity to have your songs considered by prominent figures in the music industry. If you are submitting a song composed for past musical legends, the winners will benefit from our selection of existing prizes as well as a chance to be featured on musicaid.fm. 

The Major Artists Category extends the UKSC's dedication to promoting the art and the craft of songwriting. We work to help songwriters gain valuable connections within the industry. Your music deserves recognition, and we're here to help it happen.
