Up and coming producers can find look for new songwriters, or songwriters can look for producers... whatever- its just that cool.

Even better- you get hob-nob with Bryan Cox and other highly esteemed W/C writers, Donnie Scantz and Kendrick Dean, Bryan's engineer Sam I Am, Troy Clark and Don Bowie.. Ask them questions, get advice, or just read about all the really amazing stuff they are up to.
