You may not be aware that 2012 is the Thirtieth anniversary of the San Diego Songwriter’s Guild, and as such we’re offering a special membership rate of $30 for the year – that’s 40% off our current annual membership price. We charge non-members $10 for our monthly events, and only members can pitch songs to SDSG guests, so I can’t tell what a great deal this is. It’s like getting nine months worth of events completely free! I don’t know about you, but I love a good bargain. Our $30 Thirtieth Anniversary special will be valid until September 30th, 2012, so if you or someone you know has been thinking of joining or are getting close to your renewal date, jump on this offer before we resume our standard annual membership price of $50 in October.

The San Diego Songwriters Guild’s (SDSG) goal is to stimulate both the craft and business of writing songs. SDSG was chartered in 1989 and is a non-profit, volunteer-run organization that offers:
| Networking | meet publishers, guild members, and other people in the music industry. Share information on what works and what doesn’t. Trade skills with other musicians. |
| Pitch sessions | publishers, artists, or Artists and Repertoire (A&R) reps listen to your songs for possible inclusion in their projects. Cost is $10/tape, maximum of 2 tapes per session. |
| Education | Songwriting improvement with pitch sessions and in-house critique sessions provide invaluable feedback on improving your songwriting. |
| Industry speakers | industry personnel provide information and answer questions. |
| Live showcases | for those that perform, shows at coffeehouses and other events help hone your performing skills. |
| Newsletters | available at our web-site or mailed to your house to keep you informed of guild events. |
| Contest | yearly songwriting contest with thousands of dollars in prizes. |
| Collaborators | advertise in our newsletter for a collaborator. Talk to other members and find those you wish to work with. |
| Tax-deduction | We’re non-profit, so you can deduct any fees paid to the guild at tax time. Save those receipts! |
Note that non-members can attend a guild event for $20 that is applicable to annual dues if they join within 30 days.
