Sustainable Careers Through Songwriting.
Music PEI will present the 2025 Canadian Song Conference from May 28th – 30th, 2025. This will be the 11th anniversary of this conference which explores creating multiple revenue streams and songwriting. In today’s music industry, it is challenging to develop a sustainable career and creating as many revenue streams as possible is critical to achieving that. Those revenue streams include licensing, royalties, publishing, streaming, syncs, label deals, and merch sales. The CSC attempts to take some of the mystery out of these opportunities.
In addition to the panels, Music PEI has created the Listening Sessions , opportunities for PEI artists to present their recorded music to the delegates in a business development opportunity.
Delegates recruited for the event include music supervisors, publishers, labels, PRO’s, social platforms and more.

Canadian Songwriter Sessions
Another component of the CSC is the Canadian Songwriter Sessions (Formerly Canadian Songwriter Challenge). Music PEI has partnered with provincial music industry associations from across the country to bring songwriters together to co-write with PEI songwriters. This unique opportunity pairs the 2 songwriters in each group with a producer. For more information go to Canadian Songwriter Challenge.
Thanks to the music industry associations and partners who collaborated with us in 2024 for the Canadian Songwriter Challenge: Music/Musique NB, Music Nova Scotia, Music Ontario, and Manitoba Music.
