If you performed in last year’s festival, please verify your picture/bio information on the smswf.com website is current.  If it is not, please email a current bio and pic to [email protected]

There will be a few gospel rounds on Sun. Aug. 19th.  Please indicate in your email if you would like to be in one of those.  No promises.  We are currently talking with two other Sunday morning breakfast venues to put some more gospel rounds at and haven’t confirmed them yet.

A non-refundable $25 administrative processing fee is necessary to submit your request.

If there are people you prefer to be in a round with or special requests please let us know.  No promises, but we will see what the Scheduler can do to accommodate you.

Singer/Songwriters participating in a 2018 SMSWF Songwriters’ Rounds receive a presence on the SMSWF web-site with bio and promo pic and a link to your on-line presence from the time SMSWF receives the bio and pic until the day the 2019 Round performers are announced.  Your name and picture will also be featured in the 2018 festival program.

Please note a request for a seat doesn’t mean you automatically get a seat.  There is some scrutiny of your public performance capability as stages at the SMSWF showcase you to the public and we must know what we are showcasing is stage ready.   We do not decide this but we have a committee of public listeners who rate your performance and song deciding if they would get up and leave or sit there and watch you perform.  This system keeps the performances on the SMSWF stages a place you would want to be and feel honored and special to get there.  We want  to offer the  best showcases possible that make the public want to come back year after year to hear you.  We want the performances to be so good on the SMSWF stages that the public will invite you to come perform in their hometowns.

Any questions please contact us at [email protected] or 865-.
