The unique online event to connect songwriters and industry professionals will focus on how publishers select the songwriters they work with, the types of songs publishers are looking for, and provide a live Q&A session for attendees to participate and ask the publishers questions. Attendees will have the opportunity to submit a song to the publishers and three deserving songwriters will be referred to Shar’n and Sherrill by DiscoverSooner.

“The hardest part for songwriters is often making relationships with business people who can move your career forward. Our goal is to use technology to connect songwriters with industry professionals. Both Shar’n Clark and Sherrill Blackman are highly respected publishers and independent song pluggers,” shared CEO of DiscoverSooner Nancy Deckant. “They have much to share that will shape songwriter’s thinking and possibly influence their writing. We are excited to have them at our first event.”
