# Song House > Song House is a Nashville based songwriting community, creative collective, and the first non exclusive record label of its kind. Founded by Tyler Ward in 2021. Where truthful stories become honest songs. ## About Song House is a place to be your truest self, to tell the truth, and to ask the questions you may not be still enough to ask. It is a place where true stories are told and music gets created from that space of relationship, honesty, enjoyment, joy, and the human experience. Song House operates as a community hub, a label, and an opportunity for people to get into the music industry in a way that did not exist before. It combines elements of a college dorm for artists with the feeling of church community without the religious pressure. It is not a competition. It is not about chasing numbers or writing bangers. It is a call to share your truest self and your most powerful story with the world. In a world of AI, you cannot compete with the production and output of machines. Song House is a place where you know what you are getting is a real, truthful, honest story from a person who is very similar to you. Truth wins. ## Location Nashville, Tennessee, USA.

Write from your real story, not from what you think people want to hear. If you are hiding, we sniff it out. The running ends here. Live everything: write, perform, repeat, all live. Three takes maximum, do not stop if you mess up. We stand together to celebrate and support. ## Three Core Problems Song House Solves 1. Community and belonging: Finding like minded people who celebrate and share their gifts with other creatives. 2. Authenticity and self discovery: Getting out of your head, not being perfect, accepting who you are right now. 3. A trusted space in the age of AI: Delivering high quality authentic art from real human beings telling real stories. ## The Artist Pipeline Step 1: Boot Camp / Newbie Camp. Step 2: Evaluation.
