Check out what some previous students have said:
“This was a fabulous course, rich in content, and made meaningful by the real-life experiences that colored the curriculum. The assignments provided a wealth of resources and information in the field of music publishing, which I have been putting to good use ever since. I would highly recommend this course to any musician writing their own material, or anyone interested in how the “business” of music publishing works.” – Allen Capeloto
“As a performing songwriter, I found Jim Bruno’s Music Publishing Class extremely enlightening and interesting. The course gave me the background information necessary to understand the mechanics and practicalities surrounding the business side of songwriting.” – Paul Griffiths
Some recent songwriting class alumni recent success stories:
Molly Tuttle took the first place prize in the Chris Austin Songwriting Contest at Merlefest, a Roots Music Festival in Wilkesboro, NC. The festival has over 80,000 attendees. Molly’s song ‘Walden’ was written for an assignment in my songwriting class. Molly won a cash prize, free airfare, lodging and admission to the festival, a free lesson from Grammy award winning songwriter, Jim Lauderdale and the opportunity to perform at the festival.
Leanne Weatherly received her first royalty check for a song she wrote called ‘Sunny Skies’. It was placed on a FOX network TV show called “The Finder.”
