Casio Teams Up for Dallas Songwriters Association Song Contest

Casio America, Inc. has announced it is once again joining forces with the Dallas Songwriters Association (DSA) to sponsor the 26th Annual Dallas Songwriters Association Song Contest. Each year, the DSA offers amateur songwriters from around the world the opportunity to share their music writing talents with industry professionals and compete to win over $5,000 in grand prizes.

The contest is open, and this year, Casio is offering the grand prizewinners of the contest their own Privia PX-350 digital piano.

“The Dallas Songwriters Association Song Contest is one of the longest running international songwriting contests for amateur songwriters, and Casio is excited to be a part of this great tradition once again," said Stephen Schmidt, Vice President of Casio’s Electronic Musical Instruments Division. “The DSA Song Contest runs parallel to Casio’s mission of providing innovative musical instruments to those who have a passion for music, and encouraging musical creativity among consumers.”
