Corey Smith Offers Once-In-A-Lifetime Songwriter Clinic During CMA Fest

Smith Will Perform at CMA Music Festival on Chevrolet Riverfront Stage on Saturday, June 8

Country music singer/songwriter Corey Smith will perform during the 2013 CMA Music Festival on Saturday, June 8 at 4:20 PM on the Chevrolet Riverfront Stage along the banks of the Cumberland River in downtown Nashville. The Chevrolet Riverfront Stage is free and open to the public.

The activities happening during CMA Music Festival week have always been about the fans, so in that spirit, Smith is offering a once-in-a-lifetime special event for three hopeful songwriters. In partnership with BandPage and AXS-TV, Smith has developed an exclusive songwriting clinic that will take place in Nashville on Friday, June 7. To be considered, non-professional songwriters can submit one song, either through a YouTube or Soundcloud link, at the clinic’s official BandPage site: http://bit.ly/14O5NtI, along with a brief explanation of what they would like to learn if they are selected to participate in the songwriting clinic. Songwriters must be legal residents of the United States, at least 16 years old, and have a BandPage account.

The clinic’s official BandPage site is accepting submissions now and the three winners will be selected and notified by May 31.

“I would have loved the chance to attend a songwriting clinic in Nashville when I was younger,” said Smith. “It is exciting to be able to provide this opportunity for three rising songwriters, especially during CMA Music Festival week. I can’t wait to hear all the songs entered for submission. Who knows – maybe we’ll find tomorrow’s next hit songwriter!”

Smith made his Grand Ole Opry debut last Saturday (May 17). His most recent albums are The Broken Record and Live in Chattanooga. All eight of his albums are available on iTunes. For current tour dates and more information on Smith, visit www.coreysmith.com.
