The Songwriters Guide

To Protecting Your Songs and Collecting Your Money

Becoming a songwriter doesn't come with a manual for safeguarding your songs and ensuring you receive your rightful earnings. If you're an independent songwriter or self-released artist, chances are you're missing out on potential revenue.

 

Penned by three accomplished songwriters in Nashville, this U.S. focused how-to book answers most of the questions you have and some you never thought to ask.
