New Songs For A New Scotland

New Songs For A New Scotland

scotland-flag-button-round

Hands Up for Trad wants to harness just some of the emotions and positive thoughts that have been at the forefront of all our minds in recent weeks, by creating a New Songs For A New Scotland Songbook which will feature thought provoking songs for a positive Scottish future.

There has been so many amazing ideas, positive thoughts and visions for the future in the last few years from both sides of the debate. We can’t lose these ideas – they are too important.

The New Songs For A New Scotland Songbook is looking for submissions which will be included in an ebook that will be available for free download to anyone who wants to see Scotland in a positive light. It is not a competition – all entries will be considered. So express yourself through song writing and help us capture this unique time as Scotland moves forwards. The songs don’t have to be about heather and mountains (although they can be if you want), they can be political but we are not looking backwards only forwards.

Send your submissions to the form below. Please include lyrics with chords and melody line so anyone can sing it. If your song is positive we will include it. Any questions / problems with form please contact us 🙂

  • Can you insert the lyrics of your song into this box?
  • We will use this information on our website
  • Accepted file types: jpg, jpeg, png, gif.
