An indie-focused event, songwriting organizations, music business professionals and services, and artists joined under one umbrella for a full-action packed weekend, celebrating our global songwriting community and the needs of songwriters. The Expo centers around a high concept goal of CHANGING the music industry to focus more for artists needs, particularly songwriters. It is an indie-focused not-for-profit event, with panel discussions (the main focus, with celebrated and honored industry professionals discussing various "hot" music industry topics throughout the day,) songwriting critique workshops, closed pro-sessions with leading songwriters, exhibition booths for artists and the industry to expose their services, and artist showcases at the main venue and surrounding Los Angeles clubs. The second day is a SongCamp for songwriters to collaborate and workshop their songs. http://www.songsalive.org/expo
