Announcing SpinTunes 23!

Hello, everyone! Micah here, excited to announce that SpinTunes 23 will be happening August 24 to October 28, 2024.

SpinTunes is a four-round tournament for songwriters and recording artists. In each round, contestants receive a challenge prompt and have nine days to write and record a brand-new song that meets the challenge. Our panel of judges then review and rank all entries on the strength of their songwriting, performance, and production, with the highest-ranked contestants moving on to the next round. The winner of the fourth round earns the title of SpinTunes 23 Champion!

Below, find links to all the information about the upcoming tournament. Whether you're a long-time participant, you're returning after some time away, or you're a first-timer wondering what this is all about, we hope you will join us for SpinTunes 23!
