Global Songwriters Connection has welcomed a new owner and President, Carrie Cunningham.

Owner Sheree’ Spoltore’ and her partner Jim Pace have officially passed the torch to Cunningham, and Pace will continue in his GSC role as Partner and Technology Director. Spoltore’’s decision comes after a season of focusing on her health. Since launching GSC, she has worked tirelessly to champion songwriters and artist/writers across the globe, helping thousands grow their craft, connect with industry pros, and navigate hundreds of deals. 

Cunningham, an award-winning artist and producer, brings more than 20 years of experience in performance, event production, live sound production, sync licensing, copyright and artist development to her new role. Known for her drive and her deep understanding of the creative process, she’s committed to helping artists and songwriters thrive.

“I am so thankful the legacy of GSC will continue for the next generation,” says Spoltore’. “Carrie shares the same heart for service and passion for songwriters, which have always defined GSC. She has been a vital part of many songwriting organizations and knows the needs of creatives. I will continue my work at GSC in a limited capacity in service to her vision.”

“It’s an incredible honor to continue the mission Sheree’ built,” says Cunningham. “Songwriters are the foundation of Music Row, and I’m honored to build on the bridge Sheree’ has so thoughtfully established between creators and the industry. GSC will continue to be a trusted home for songwriters who are serious about their craft.”

“GSC has always been about supporting songwriters through both creative and technological innovation,” adds Pace, GSC Partner and Technology Director. “I’m excited to continue that mission with Carrie as we build new ways to connect writers and the industry.”

Under Cunningham’s leadership, Global Songwriters Connection will continue its mission of inspiring, educating and connecting songwriters with the opportunities they deserve, offering its signature one-on-one mentoring, publisher pitch events and songwriter development programs, while expanding digital education and live networking opportunities.

GSC will host its annual GSC Holiday Mixer on Dec. 10 in the CMA Event Room. The event is open to GSC members and the Nashville songwriting community.

Cunningham, Pace and Spoltore’ can be reached at carrie@globalsongwriters.com, jim@globalsongwriters.com and sheree@globalsongwriters.com, respectively.
