NEWSLETTER 4-25-22 (click to open)

The 2022 TSAI Songwriter Award winners will be

announced Wednesday night, May 4, 7pm

at TSAI and live on our fb page.

Co-hosted by myself and Revele, we'll play some music,

announce all the winners, and have a PARTY!

The winners in attendance, or watching live, will receive

trophies at an Awards presentation at a later date.

Cash Creek Club will resume in July, as will

our Jammin' At The Creek shows.

We will also not have a regular Wednesday meeting now. Instead, we'll have

workshops, critiques, and most pitches, as they come up.

Most will be on our website or facebook page.

Some may be live, some on Weds nights.

We are open during the day now, with our Playlist there for Industry access.

This will also get more pitch options during the day for you.

Songs Pitched and Songs Picked-up pages will be updated for you, too.

Special thanks to Sandy Ramos for last week's Pitch-a-Pro!

Maybe, if attendance at events and Around Town nights

picks back up, we'll go back to Wednesday night meetings.

Maybe a full Awards Show next year!

TSAI Around Town at the Opry Backstage Grill will

be starting back up soon! Stay tuned!
