When was the last time you got to meet Jon Ernst, Los Angeles, owner of ShowRunner Music, Sarah Feldman, Nashville, Creative Director at Writer’s Den Music Group, Marc Ferrari, Los Angeles, producer, MasterSource/First Com of Universal Music Group, and so many more in person, got to talk to them one-to-one, got a good email address for them? Here is your chance! These may be some of the people you’ll meet at the Durango Songwriters Expo in Colorado – Broomfield to be exact. You’d have to spend weeks in Los Angeles, Nashville, or New York to MAYBE do this. Sign up by midnight TONIGHT, September 11th, and get in on the action! Maybe you’ll be lucky like Meghan Trainor, Meron Mengist, Olivia Rudeen, Andy Ard or Lauren Brombert and get your song(s) signed!
Hey songwriters! Introducing our 2/2/2 Challenge:
● 20 more registrations needed
● $2,000 scholarship contest unlocked for ALL attendees!
Here’s how it works: If we hit 20 more registrations by the end-of-day (TODAY) September 11th, every single attendee at the Broomfield Expo (October 2-4) will be automatically entered into a contest to win a scholarship to our exclusive, invite-only Durango Film/TV event in May – a $2,000 value! (That’s Two Thousand Dollars, friends!)
This only happens if we hit our goal, so tell all your friends, spread the word, let’s make this 30th annual event a big one!
One winner will be selected based on the quality of songs and tracks submitted for our showcase and listening session consideration. No extra entry required – just attend the Expo, send us your 1-2 songs (either on the registration form or on the song submission form) and you’re in!

Let’s make this happen together!
