What is Songsalive! and how can it help me?
Songsalive!® is the largest international non-profit membership organization and social community for songwriters and composers, since 1997. Songsalive! is a is a grassroots, philanthropic,volunteer managed charity organization run by songwriters for songwriters and is dedicated to nurturing, support, education and promotion of songwriters and composers worldwide. Through our grassroots international efforts, we’ve put a stamp on what “global community” truly is and it’s the type of community that is definitely needed in this ever changing music business where songwriting can be a very isolating experience and career.
We provide a "home", a family, for songwriters and composers through our programs, resources, community and support, all focused on the art and business of songwriting. It acts as an epicenter, a heart of the international songwriting community and music markets, bridging the gaps, tapping songwriters into the pulse of the business and at the same time giving them and their music the support they deserve. Through Songsalive!, songs and songwriters can be accessed by the whole world and when the hunt is on, Songsalive! is a one-stop song shop! Our Team live around the world and are all volunteers. We take our non-profit 501c)3) charity status seriously: our organization lives on passion! Read more about Songsalive | Read the Membership Benefits
I'm a current Member of Songsalive! How do I get access to the NEW backstage and my member benefits?
We do not use Simplero anymore for our backstage membership site. We now use a really cool platform via Mighty Networks. If you were a member previously on Simplero platform with us, we sent you an email to migrate to the new backstage platform. Look for that email in your inbox from us. It will provide you instructions on moving/converting over. It says "your exclusive invitation". If you don't hear from us, or you need your login/password, please look in your spam folder, or you can reach out to membership@songsalive.org and we will sort it out. If you have already migrated over, you can log in at https://members.songsalive.org
Tell me about membership rates?
As a non-profit organization, we survive on membership and sponsorship. We've kept our membership rates around the same price for 15 years! It's only just over $11.99 a month (paid annually) and you can start with month to month. Join here.
I can't afford the membership, what are my options?
If you have financial difficulties paying membership, but want to be involved, please email us at membership@songsalive.org to discuss discount options. We evaluate financial hardship case by case and cannot always approve these. Please write to us on what those circumstances are via email, and provide any supporting documentation. Often if you are a student, pensioner or have an extreme financial case, we will do our best to support that. We also are always looking for volunteers to help us with our events and services, which can offset your membership and sometimes make it free.
I've never been a member of Songsalive! or I'm expired. Why should I join now?
Take a look at our benefits and see if it works for you. For starters, back in 2018 we launched a brand new Mobile App (available on iOS and Android) and that just made our global social community that.much.better.
I want to cancel my membership. How do I do that?
Email us at membership@songsalive.org and we''ll take care of that. No hard feelings. We cannot reimburse membership for the remainder of the year though, as you have been given instant access to all our amazing content*
(*except within the first 10 days of joining, we will refund you)
Do I need to be a member to come to a Songsalive! event?
No you don't need to be a member to come to many of our events except the Songsalive! Song Sessions (Song Critique Workshops) and Songcamp are exclusively for members. Anyone can come to our Songsalive! Showcases. See our calendar
How do I get off all mailing lists?
If you want to unsubscribe from us completely, please add your email on this form. Please note that if you do this, and if you were a paying member, we will instantly cancel your membership and we do not offer refunds (after first 10 days).
