We here at Quick Stop Entertainment are true lovers of music, in all its forms. We’re also quite keen on the spirit of competition, and of spurring creativity through said competition.

To that end, we launched a brand new form of creative combat here at the Stop.

In this age of manufactured and painfully earnest talent contests, we’ve decided to instead shine a light on the quirky, quixotic underworld of musicians that don’t get nearly the attention they deserve.

Ah, but I did mention that there was a competition involved…

We have 25 slots open to any and all musicians across this here internet. All you have to do is be one of the first 25 to apply via the form below, and you’re in. THE LIST OF CHALLENGERS AND THE FIRST TASK WILL BE ANNOUNCED ON TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 3rd.

Once those 25 participants have been announced, the showdown will commence.

Like a songwriting version of Iron Chef, the 25 competitors will be presented with a very specific songwriting challenge. They’ll be given one week to complete their songs – however they see fit, within the parameters set forth – after which time the entries will be uploaded to Quick Stop to be voted on by you, the readers.

Oh, and what do we call this competition?

MASTERS OF SONG FU

We’ll have our usual complement of very special Masters who you’ll be going up against in this edition of MASTERS OF SONG FU. Think of them as the iron chefs of Song Fu, and your ultimate challengers. We’ll be revealing the Masters on February 3rd, when the Challengers are announced.

If you triumph, not only will you win remarkable (and potentially off-putting) bragging rights and a clutch of fantastic mystery prizes, you will also become the proud owner of the magnificent, one-of-a-kind MASTER OF SONG FU TROPHY.

Remember, you must be able to realize a song both lyrically and musically. This competition is open to both singer/songwriters and bands – but since space is limited, only enter if you truly accept the challenge. As stated above, we’ll be accepting the first 25 valid applications we receive.

    Good Luck all!

  2. Russ Rogers Says:

    Looking forward to another edition of Masters of Song Fu. I saw a video of Jonathan Coulton, Paul and Storm, and Molly (sweetafton23) performing JoCo’s “Always the Moon” from Song Fu #2. It was lovely and inspiring.

    And, let me say again how much I enjoyed taking part in the Song Fu Holiday Song Showcase. It was a highlight of my Christmas Season. I made new friends. Heard some great new songs. And was compelled to record a song of my own! It warmed the cockles of my cockles.

  3. The Masked Stranger Says:

    I look forward to once again participating in this lovely contest, or rather, participating in it as a contest, as my first Song Fu involvement was a showcase.
