The next meeting of the Songwriter Summit (nee: Summit County Songwriter Circle) will be held on May 7th at 2 Girls Cafe & Bakery, 3703 Darrow Road in Stow, OH. Our general meeting begins at 7 PM and is usually over by 9 o’clock. Meetings feature presentations of new songs or works in progress offered by members and non-members alike. You do not need to be a member to present a song and you do not need to be a writer to attend the meeting. Members discuss the songs, offer gentle critique and comment as requested by the performer. Songwriter Summit exists to connect songwriters throughout the area and has members that often travel from Pennsylvania and West Virginia to attend. Our musical tastes cover a wide variety of genres and styles and all are welcome.

We meet on the first Monday of every month and would love to see you at our next meeting.
