Updated: Dec 29, 2019

Attention HSA Members:


THE NOVEMBER SONG OF THE MONTH VOTING IS STILL OPEN – 9 songs have been uploaded in the November Contest. You may cast your votes for your 2 favorite songs on the HSA website at www.houstonsongwriters.net by clicking on the Song of the Month Area. Anyone registered in the Members Area with a “Y” status is eligible to vote. Your fellow songwriters will appreciate your participation. Voting closes on Monday night, January 6, 2020. If you have any problems logging in, please send us a message at contact@houstonsongwriters.com and we will be happy to help you.


SAVE THE DATE:

HSA is very excited to have the amazing, singer/songwriter/teacher in the greater Houston Area, Linda Shibes Schaible, to start the New Year off right for Houston Songwriters Members and Non-Members by presenting her awesome workshop on Writing Great Lyrics.


Topic 1: Get Your Songs To The Next Level: Easy Ways To Show and Not Tell.

Topic 2: How To Make Your Rhymes Sound Like A Pro

Linda says to, “Bring one of your original songs you think needs a little more "show" vs. tell, and needs some new, killer, fresh rhyme! Bring a lyric sheet (and music, if available). The goal is to give everyone an opportunity to focus on a song. She'll give examples and then you can sit down and work on applying them to your own song. Some before and afters would be great! Guitars welcome too!”


More information about Linda Shibes Schaible can be found on her websites at www.songchops.com and www.songchops.com/about-songwriter-linda-schaible/.
