What should I study if I want to work as a songwriter in 2024?

If you’re looking to study a course to become a songwriter online or in London, there are a number of possible routes you can take. Some study topics such as creative writing, English literature, or theatre, however one path to a successful songwriting career is to take a modern music program like those offered at Point Blank. For example, the Songwriting course allows you to develop your skills, with modules in music theory, compositional techniques, and songwriting workshops, as well as teaching you technical skills such as how to use production software and recording equipment. You’ll also get an insight into how the industry works; all the while being taught by working industry professionals.

In an industry where who you know matters, this early contact is invaluable. However, this isn’t your only option! You could also study on the Music Production and Vocal Performance diploma. Producers, performers and songwriters often work very closely together in the modern industry, and their responsibilities often overlap. You can view our full range of singing and songwriting courses below. If you’d like to speak to one of our course advisors about your career options, you can contact them here.
