EVERY entrant can log in to their account after the contest has been closed to view their song, contest judge, and their score/critique (depending on your submission type - see below) for their submission. All contestants will also receive a SONGWRITERS PROFILE on the site.
Each contest genre is limited to only the first 150 song entries. You will NOT get lost in the crowd at Indie International!
Songwriters or songwriting teams may enter up to three songs, and can divide these between multiple categories if they wish.
$30 (USD)/song for a BASIC ENTRY w/ standard evaluation
or add only $10 for a WRITTEN CRITIQUE $40 (USD)/song.
YES! EVERYONE gets a standard numerical evaluation with their submission!However, the optional critque from your judge is very valuable. Read a recent email we received:
Here's an unsolicted testimonial from a contestant June 2011
"I just want to tell you how much I appreciated the critiques from your recent contest. Although I didn't fare so well in the standings, I learned more from the critiques than I ever have - from ANY source. They were detailed, specific and EXTREMELY well articulated! And yet they were gentle and encouraging. You certainly chose an excellent group of judges. Just wanted to give you a little feedback.
I'll try again next time with what I hope to be a much improved product!"

Unlike other song competitions, all entries remain absolutely anonymous to our judges. Production value is not taken into consideration. Songs are judged based on originality, melody, composition, lyrics and phrasing.
Indie International is the GREENEST song competition on the planet! No CDs, no bubble mailers, no judge forms! Indie International will be making a charitable donation to the Nature Conservatory by planting 10 trees in each of the names of our first place winners. For more info, please visit www.nature.org
ALL FIRST & SECOND PLACE WINNERS will also be featured here on the front page of the Indie International website for the duration of the next contest, as well as the winners page with the rest of our awarded songwriters.
Winners are displayed randomly within each prize level! (take a look-refresh the page!) All top 10 songwriters for each genre will be permanently featured on the Indie International website. For a full list of our 50 winners for our last competition, please visit our winners page.
