Build your Fan Base. Get paid to write songs.

ArtistShare for Songwriters is a service tailored specifically for  songwriters which allow the fans to directly fund the creation of new songs. Based on the Multi-Gammy Award Winning ArtistShare model, ArtistShare for Songwriters can help you to build a strong and loyal following and get paid to do what you do best - write music!  Best of all there are no commission fees for a full year! (BMI Members Only) That means you receive 100% of the proceeds immediately into your PayPal account to finance your project. After the first year the commission is a low 5%.

We were the first and we are still the best.
ArtistShare was the first fan-funded model for music (officially launching of our first project in 2003) and made history in 2004 with the first recording in history to win a  Grammy that was not available in retail stores - not to mention that it was funded completely by the fans! With 4 Grammy winning recordings and 11 nominations for our fan-funded projects since then we wrote the book on how to fund projects through your fan base and now we have created a service specifically for you - the songwriter.
