Things to Keep in Mind
We focus on original songwriting.
All genres are welcome as long as the songs are a good fit for our listening room environment.
Submissions are reviewed on a rolling basis, so there’s no specific deadline.
Each round features 3 songwriters playing 3 songs each. We’ll rotate between songs, and if time allows, there may be an opportunity to play more.
If You're Selected for a Round
You are responsible for bringing your own instrument. Please note we can’t currently accommodate keyboards unless you bring your own equipment.
All music must be played live.
The Dream Behind Ozark Songsmiths
Recognizing the wealth of songwriting talent in the Ozarks, Sundi Jo created Ozark Songsmiths to provide a welcoming space for songwriters to connect and share their work. She envisions a regular gathering where musicians support each other and audiences discover the magic of original music.
Sundi Jo is an Americana/Roots Gospel recording artist, singer, and songwriter from Branson, Missouri.
Imagine a voice that sounds like a blend of Lucinda Williams, Iris Dement, Anne Wilson, and Zach Williams, and you’ll find Sundi Jo. She brings a soulful style to her music that makes her unforgettable. Her voice and ability to write songs from the heart drive her passion to keep making music.
