Music and fashion have always gone hand in hand, and now that partnership might make a star out of one lucky young musician.

The New York Songwriters Circle is currently accepting submissions from artists around the world for its 2009 Songwriting Contest, which will be judged partially by members of the social networking site Fashion Fantasy Game.

Fashion Fantasy Game allows users to develop online personalities as virtual “designers” or “store owners” who sell clothing and other fashion pieces. Users can also take part in online design contests and design their own virtual clothing. Fashion Fantasy Game’s targeted demographic is teenage girls.

The 675,000 current members will listen to audio clips and watch video of NYSC submissions, and will also cast the final votes for the under-18 category of the organization’s 2009 Young Songwriter’s Award, via online ballot in October. NYSC, which has a profile on the site, will add a new video to FFG every week.

“This is a fantastic opportunity for our artists to have their songs heard by hundreds of thousands of young music fans in an influential online community,” Tina Shafer, NYSC Artistic Director and president, said in a press release.

“FFG members are passionate about trends and style, and they know what’s hot. We think this is the perfect opportunity to showcase performers who could become the next Kate Voegele (NYSC’s first contest winner),” said Nancy Ganz, creator and Chief Fashion Designer, Fashion Fantasy Game. “FFG membership is growing at a pace of more than 10,000 members per week, add to that the range of capabilities of our site and we offer The New York Songwriter’s Circle a powerful springboard for their performers.”
