mtsu logo111Middle Tennessee State University has teamed with Sony/ATV for ‘All Access,’ which allows students to submit two of their songs to Sony/ATV’s creative team. The creative team then selects students to perform two additional songs during a live showcase.
The opportunity is open to both singers and songwriters. Songwriters must submit original compositions, while singers can send a song written by another writer, or a cover of a song that has not been a radio single. All genres of music are welcome. The partnership will continue through the Spring 2015 semester.

Beverly Keel, chair of MTSU’s Department of Recording Industry in the College of Mass Communication, said the partnership “provides a pathway for MTSU students to share their talent and work with industry professionals.”
