Why Songwriters Love SongDoor
At the heart of it, it's because we care. We're here to help make you a better songwriter by giving you free opportunities and tools toward that goal.
Right behind that, it's because what we offer is a tremendous value. We're not here to make money; the entry fees and evaluation service cover our expenses, which we try to keep very low. That's why, year after year, people come back to SongDoor.

GOT A YOUTUBE VIDEO OF YOUR ORIGINAL SONG?
We're looking for original music videos to consider for broadcast on SongDoor TV. New videos are broadcast each Tuesday and Friday.
A few simple rules, please:
- The song must be original; no covers or re-interpretations of public domain music/poetry.
- Live performance videos must have decent audio and a short (<5 sec.) or no spoken intro.
- Weaccept live, acted or animated (moving) videos vs. a static slide. Lyric videos are fine.
- No hate speech or slurs, explicit lyrics or lyrics that glorify violence, death or destruction.
NEWS & UPDATES
Instrux for accessing your free songwriting tools will be emailed by January 25. Check back here on Jan. 8 to see who made the finals and on Jan. 22 to see the winners and Honorable Mentions.
ENTRY TIP
Make sure your song is in the right category! Ballads usually belong in Soft Rock vs. Pop unless it's Country. All Country songs belong in the Country category.
