Dallas Songwriters Association

The Dallas Songwriters Association is a 501(c)3 non-profit educational organization celebrating 20 years of motivating and uplifting songwriters everywhere. The DSA has sponsored numerous activities designed to meet organizational goals. The group was formed around the monthly critique session to give honest, creative, and helpful advice on improving writing style and technique. Over the years, the monthly meeting grew to include featured guest speakers, such as the Dixie Chicks, from all fields of the music industry before the critique session. The DSA also produces and sponsors showcases designed to promote their songwriters as writers and performers, featuring original songs from all musical styles and cultural backgrounds.

The DSA also produces seminars and workshops about the craft and business of songwriting, publishes the monthly newsletter Songwriter Notes and offers annual and quarterly song and lyric contests.
