"I've made so many amazing new friends and connections in the music industry because of Listen Up, and I honestly don't know where I'd be right now, in my career but also in my mental health journey, without it"

- Tyller Fischer

“The Songwriting Prize was the first songwriting competition I ever entered. I got to talk to an incredible group of judges & mentors and establish connections. Seeing so many amazing artists with great songs was so inspiring, and made me want to write and produce more.”

- Chelsea Warner

The Songwriting Prize was an unforgettable experience – it didn’t feel like a competition at all. You have these ten strangers bearing their heart and soul to you on stage by the stories they are telling and it’s captivating. It’s much more than a competition and it was a honour to be a part it.
