Pitch #2623
You can pitch lyrics-only, song starters/worktapes, or fully developed songs for this Co-Writer Connection with one of our Top Composers. The composer will review submissions to see if there's a potential creative fit. As with all SongU pitch opportunities, they may respond with a "yes," "no," or "maybe" based on what they hear. If there are more than 20 submissions pending at one time, the listing may temporarily be paused to give our composers time to catch up with listening.
About: 2025 Top Composer Award Winner, Marialaina DiFalco. Marialaina is from Long Island, NY. She says, "I started writing songs as a child and had my first radio release at age 20 (freestyle dance song called "Love Me Tonight" by the artist Cynthia). I have always had a love of music and songs, a fan of many artists including Whitney Houston, Heart, Madonna, The Police, Shania Twain, Tim McGraw and others. It was always the amazing melodies that drew me in. I play guitar and writing melodies has always been my strength, but through attending classes at SongU and attending workshops both locally and in Nashville, I feel I have greatly improved my lyric writing also. While I still have the dream of one day hearing more of my songs on the radio, for now, just hearing someone tell me that a song I wrote resonates with them is priceless."

Seeking: Hey all! I am looking for something that speaks to me. It could be a cool ideas or lyric starts. Also, it could be a cool guitar riff, an instrumental, or existing song's instrumental with a cool track and/or chord progression in which maybe you aren't quite happy with the song and wouldn't mind a rewrite/or new topline. I do write both melody and lyrics. I play guitar to accompany myself, but I mostly compose my melodies in my head and then find the chords. I'm not as strong with track production, so if you have studio/arranging/demoing capability, that is a definite plus. I write mostly Contemporary Country and Pop or Pop Rock. I'm always looking to write commercial songs. However, if sync is your thing and you are good on the sync business/placement end, I would love to collaborate and see where that could lead. Thanks for the read and looking forward to hearing from you. -- Marialaina :)
