sync placements in Film, TV, Trailers, Advertising/Commercials, Video Games, and other Media.

The purpose of NSAI is to educate and help members improve on the crafting of songs. 
Membership benefits include monthly meetings, song evaluations, song contests,
networking with industry guests (like hit songwriters, publishers, music supervisors),
receiving discounts on NSAI events in Nashville,
and using the resources available on the NSAI website.  


NSAI owns and operates the iconic Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, Tennessee.

Additional Songwriting Groups in San Diego

​Over the years, San Diego has had several songwriting groups, 
most notably the San Diego Songwriters Meet Up (with Cliff Keller) and the 
​San Diego Songwriters Guild, 
but they are inactive at this time.

​If you're looking for a new songwriting group, check out the NSAI San Diego Chapter. 
All are welcome, and the first two trial meetings and song submissions are free.
After two meetings, there is a charge of $15 for non-members to attend.

NSAI San Diego monthly meetings are usually on the 3rd Sunday online on Zoom at 3:00 PM.
The in-person meetings are every quarter (January, April, July, October) at
Studio West in Rancho Bernardo, followed by an optional no-host
​Meet & Greet at a nearby restaurant.
