Listen. Play. Hang. Connect. EVERY Wednesday in North Hollywood This is the chapter that started it all back in November 2019, when Greg Gilman of Greg in Good Company launched L.A.’s first weekly Nashville-style songwriter round showcase, which was designed to facilitate connection between artists from the local music scene and beyond. Greg and his team invite the best performers they know from a vast professional network to play original music in carefully curated rounds, and then welcome any artists in the audience to drop their name in The Hat for a chance to be picked at the end of each curated round to play in shorter open-mic rounds. WR:LA, now hosted by Broadway B, is held every Wednesday in North Hollywood at Universal Bar and Grill, an all-ages venue (until 10 PM) that offers FREE PARKING in a lot right outside, plus plenty of street parking, as well as a full menu of delicious food and drink. Doors open at 7 PM for this FREE showcase and L.A. music community hang, with music starting by 8 PM and an OPEN JAM wrapping up the night. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64685d8554753444100a6efd/582bae28-ad7e-488a-b7b3-fa88758b21a5/WR+Generic+Flier+UBG.PNG Los Angeles - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64685d8554753444100a6efd/d6d8559e-60cc-4801-810e-e4633864064a/Greg+in+Good+Company+SOLO+Pic.JPEG Los Angeles - Meet The Founder Greg in Good Company is rock ‘n’ roll full of heart and soul, backing his socially conscious, heartfelt lyrics with positive social impact by dedicating himself to growing the Writers ‘Round Community in between a very busy schedule.

Why Nashville-style writers rounds? The in-the-round format allows multiple artists to share the stage and take turns telling the stories behind their songs. Songwriters listen to and build off each other, sometimes choosing their songs in the moment based on the last song played. Nashville rounds are friendly, casual, and intimate. They provide the opportunity for a writer to try out new material live in a supportive space, and foster a culture of collaboration, creativity & community. https://writersround.org/new-jersey daily 0.75 2024-11-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64685d8554753444100a6efd/027d217e-39c5-4733-a9f1-80c1de32c2c9/IMG_2960.jpg New Jersey - Connecting New York, New Jersey & philly Songwriters This show isn’t weekly — yet — but it is monthly at Crossroads in Garwood, N.J., where touring artist Rory D’Lasnow launched our first East Coast chapter in February 2023.

We’re working to give more O.C. talent opportunities to perform original music, while also serving as a bridge between L.A. and S.D., often inviting talent from those markets to perform as feature artists. Each show kicks off at 6:30 PM and features two curated rounds with an open mic round in between. All ages are welcome, come hang at our next one! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64685d8554753444100a6efd/6c2c59d6-dd0f-4c58-bec2-c157a2519bd1/DSC02590.jpg Orange County - Founded By Ron Maxime Ron was a regular at Writers ‘Round: Los Angeles, playing in both open and curated rounds. After seeing Writers ‘Round: San Diego spring up, he got to thinking: Orange County needs something like this, too. So he joined the team and built one in Costa Mesa, CA, in collaboration with NEAT Coffee, a friendly neighborhood café that already knew a thing or two about building and serving local community. WROC is a bi-weekly show, so follow on Instagram @WritersRoundOC to keep tabs on upcoming dates! https://writersround.org/about-1 daily 0.75 2023-05-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64685d8554753444100a6efd/f750b35e-898d-4966-995f-a5239e8cc85f/Writers_%27Round_National_Logo.jpg About - serving, Supporting & Celebrating the craft of singing and songwriting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64685d8554753444100a6efd/d6c993f5-7603-4521-b14d-6a97ce418cc5/Greg+in+Good+Company+-+Solo+2.jpg About - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://writersround.org/home daily 1.0 2025-01-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64685d8554753444100a6efd/e4fd7724-d2d5-443f-be15-7d6142ac4317/Melissa+Hale+WR+Knox.jpg Home - Songwriters Around the Country… …are listening, playing, hanging, and connecting at Writers ‘Round chapters across America, including Los Angeles, San Diego, Orange County, Knoxville, and New Jersey.

We’re not in this for the money. Our mission is to build and serve community through warm, welcoming spaces, where artists and audiences connect through Nashville-style songwriter rounds, featuring the best talent from the local music scene, and beyond. We view door/cover charges as a barrier, not a bridge, so our showcases around the country are FREE to enter, though age restrictions may apply at certain venues. We simply ask that patrons support the venues by purchasing available food and beverages, and encourage audience members to tip the featured performers in each round. Our long-term goal is to utilize this vast network of musical talent to serve the community at large, through benefit shows, fundraisers, and educational events. In the meantime, we’re building a national network of connection for independent artists to take advantage of at home, or on the road. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64685d8554753444100a6efd/be9b6c82-36f3-4882-8806-71fc1d5bdfcc/Knoxville_Audience.jpg Home - Curated & Open Rounds Our goal is to curate rounds featuring three amazing performers, of any and all genres, at various stages of career, from local gigging to Grammy winning. We love the songwriter round format because it facilitates a deeper connection between the individuals sharing the stage, and encourages storytelling and spontaneous collaboration. We always host at least one “open round,” inviting any singer-songwriters in the audience to submit their name for a chance to be picked at random to play a few songs. The combination of curated and open rounds creates simply magical evenings, centered around and celebrating the craft of songwriting, guaranteeing a fantastic live listening experience, and also giving newcomers a chance to be seen, heard, and get involved. https://writersround.org/press daily 0.75 2024-03-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64685d8554753444100a6efd/2b1d7db7-3367-43ae-952b-70081cba3f8c/laist.png Press - From A ‘Lonely Road’ To An Artist Haven: “Artists say music communities like this have helped revitalize the L.A. music scene in recent years, which has long suffered from a culture of promoter-driven shows and a “pay-to-play” mentality” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64685d8554753444100a6efd/f0408f34-ae2e-427e-89a2-807f2398b258/troubadour_banner_960_dark.png Press - Ben Grace Gilmore: It’s All About Building Community “Writers Round San Diego is exactly what a singer-songwriter is looking for and, in fact, dreaming of: a place where fellow musicians are respectful and hold each other as equals and in high regard, where the audience wants to hear the stories behind the songs, and where people go to actually listen.” https://writersround.org/wrla-events-directory daily 0.75 2024-06-03
