A large resource for songwriters and musicians everywhere for publishing & legal advice, tips, links, message board, war stories, and books

So, songwriting is your thing, eh?

You've played your songs for a lot of people and you've come to the conclusion that Mom and Dad aren't just saying that you're talented because they're your parents and they feel obligated to patronize you. Total strangers at the local coffee house are asking why you're still serving capuccino and you're starting to get that bug, right? That's where Li'l Hank's Guide come in!

This site was originally dedicated to the L.A. music scene - specifically for musicians and singer/songwriters visiting or living in Los Angeles with no clue where to begin to perform their music or who to play it for. You see, Li'l Hank was once completely clueless, too. As time went on and he became familiar with the territory, one day said to himself, "Man, this town is really spread out - somebody has to do something to make it a little easier to navigate!". There are more clubs in L.A. than you can shake a pick at. Some are premiere showcase rooms, others are little dives. Some are in the heart of Hollywood, some are at the West end of the Valley. So Li'l Hank created this guide - something he wishes was there for him when he was still getting lost on dark side streets looking for a gig.

Remember, this guide is not only for songwriters in L.A. but for songwriters EVERYWHERE. See for yourself.
