Song challenge

Call of the sea

Songwriters wanted

Songwriters of all genres and all ages are invited to submit their original song to the Living on the Edge of the World songwriter challenge  – ‘Call of the sea’

All song lyrics will be included in a publication that will draw together images and text from the Living on the Edge of the World festival (a month celebrating art and culture in Whitby), and songwriters may be asked to share their song at the final festival event on Saturday March 30th. This will be a daytime event – more information coming soon!  

How to Submit 

Your song should be inspired by the festival theme – Living on the Edge of the World.

We particularly welcome songs from people who have a connection with the Whitby area – but we don’t mind what that connection is! However the theme inspires you to create – we would love to hear from you.

You can email your original song to flashcompanyarts@gmail.com. This could be a score, a video or an audio recording (any format is fine).  

You can post a cd or thumb drive if that’s easier for you to Call of the sea, Flash Company Arts, Flowergate Hall Community Arts Centre, Flowergate, Whitby, YO21 3BA

Please include your name with all submissions, and make sure that you provide us with a way to get in touch with you! 

Deadline 21 March 2024
