The Chicago Songwriters Collective Meetup Group

Do you write songs or want to write songs? C'mon out and share your songs with the group and get helpful feedback, or just come to listen and share tips in the art of songwriting.

This is your chance to hang around with other songwriters. Talk about the details and learn from each other. Feel free to bring along extra lyric sheets. Bring acoustic guitar, CD/MP3 player or what ever you have to share your song. We do have a keyboard for you to use. We are limited to 15 people so please don’t sign up if you are not planning on coming.

Singers and songwriters in all genres and abilities are welcome!

Note: The fieldhouse is located across the street from the Jefferson Park Transit Terminal with Union Pacific Northwest (UP-NW) Metra Trains coming in from downtown and the northwest suburbs, a Blue Line “L” stop and 13 Pace & CTA bus lines.

Show case a few songs at our 2nd Monday Open Mic. Bring a guitar or other instrument of choice. You can also bang on the keys of a grand piano that is provided for us. Bring friends.

4th Monday Song Sharing at SAE Institute -in person
Hey writers - this is a fun, supportive and safe environment for every songwriter, regardless of where you're at in your musical journey. So - tune on or come on out!

All in all, this is your chance to hang around with other songwriters. Talk about the details and learn from each other. Feel free to bring along an instrument or recorded material to share with the group for positive Collaborative Feedback. For best results please bring along extra lyric sheets. No Keyboard on site although if you request, I can typically bring one along. It works best if you have a link that can be shared into the Zoom chat. We also still can play most anything recorded, be that on your phone/in the cloud and even CDs and MP3s.

We'll have a time for sharing and review a music biz/songwriting topic before the song circle. Low key, but a great personal way to connect in the Chicago community. Join us! All ages, levels, styles are welcome!

Also - we’ll be VIRTUAL too via this Zoom Meeting link:
