Resume to Get a
Songwriting, Singing

A resume for a singer,
musician or a song

that different than a
resume would be for
any other job, such as
a journalist or a jingle
writer.
You simply need tell
about your singing or
songwriting
experience and what
qualifies you for the
role. Be sure to
mention all writing and
music-related
projects you've worked
on, what type of songs
you specialize in, what
type of work you're
looking for, and of
course, the best way
to reach you.
Don't forget to include
any music-related or
songwriting courses
or seminars you have
attended, as well as
any experience you
have writing songs
and lyrics.

Many songwriters and
lyricists are surprised
to learn that there are
people out there who
earn their living by
writing songs from 9 to
5. It may not be like the
famed Brill-building
songwriting houses
of the 1960’s where
songwriters like Neil
Diamond got their
start, but there are
music publishers,
management
companies and music
producers that
represent artists and
bands and need to
supply them with a
steady flow of fresh,
new, original songs.
There are also adver-
tising agencies and
media companies who
employ creative talent
such as musicians and
songwriters to create
songs and jingles for
promotional campaigns.

Ever since the video
era began, the image
of Recording Artists
has become even
more important than
who actually wrote the
hit songs and lyrics
that the recording
artists sing, and this
has created a role for
songwriters who can
write material for other
artists and vocalists.
For this reason, artist
management com-
panies, production
companies & music
publishers will all at
times employ
songwriters, lyricists
& co-writers to write
and create new,
original songs with
hit potential for their
Recording Artists.
