SEE WHERE OUR SHOWCASES ARE LOCATED HERE
StructureOur
chapter coordinator books the talent from our membership pool of amazing Songsalive! songwriters, from the local area or if traveling or on tour (Yes,
New York artists can book an LA Showcase!). Some are well-known celebrated
artists, others are fabulous up and coming artists we want to showcase because
they are worthy of exposure. The format of the showcase is determined by each
coordinator - sometimes we ask each songwriter perform 3 to 4 songs each within
our showcase time frame (up to about 6 or 7 artists per showcase.) Sometimes we
ask our artists to perform two or three song mini-sets in two rounds with an
intermission in the middle, sometimes we do in the round song circles. Other
times we have a band to close the night after several acoustic sets. When you
are confirmed for your showcase you will receive an email with the full
requirements for the show and any guidelines that are specific to that showcase
and the venue.
