ASCAP resumes their virtual Experience webinars tomorrow (Thursday) and every Thursday for the next few weeks, after pausing last week “in order to take the time to reflect how we can work to combat racism at ASCAP, in the creator community and in the world.”

If there’s one good thing to come out of the pandemic, it’s the increase in online webinars for songwriters, with many of them free to attend. The ASCAP Experience (formerly ASCAP Expo), held annually in Hollywood, has become a ‘clear my schedule’ pilgrimage for many music creators seeking their path and place in today’s music world, and a buzz event for newbies who have heard of its many offerings. With the in-person event postponed this year, the performing rights organization is featuring many of the key panels online.
Programming is open to all music creators, students and music industry professionals, regardless of which performing rights organization you belong to. Any music maker seeking tools and advice on what it takes to be a music creator today can access the weekly sessions.
