Wanna win $1,500 in cash, a Santa Cruz guitar and a performing slot at American Songwriter’s 30th Anniversary party in early 2015? Well, you’ve come to the right place.

One winner from each genre will be chosen by the contest judges. American Songwriter readers will then vote for the grand prize winner from among the field of genre winners. Entries accepted August 1 – November 5, 2014. Winners will be announced November 22.
