AC TV Show Opening Song
Dave Walton, Steve Collom and myself (Amanda West) just had a forward for listing# Y171126AC
The song forwarded is called "Blanket Of Love", and was originally written as the Father-Daughter dance for Dave's daughter's wedding I intentionally kept the lyrics universal for pitching to tv & film, while at the same time putting in a load of personal references between Dave and his lovely daughter
The vocal is the wonderful Steve Collom and the music is the equally wonderful Dave Walton.

ADULT CONTEMPORARY/SINGER-SONGWRITER Style Songs with Male Vocals are needed for an (up-to) $7,500, Direct-to-Supervisor placement as the Opening Song in a NEW TV Show on a Major Broadcast Network. They’re looking for great Mid-to-Up-Tempo Songs that you’d expect to hear on a playlist with Artists and Songs like (but not limited to): “Gravity” by John Mayer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VBex8zbDRs “Too Good At Goodbyes” by Sam Smith: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_ub7Etch2U “Say You Won't Let Go” by James Arthur: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yW7w8F2TVA Please submit well-structured Songs with engaging melodies, infectious hooks, and a huge, compelling chorus that brings it all home. You can go with a relatively simple Stripped-Down Guitar/Vocal or Piano/Vocal performance, as well as versions with a small ensemble. A compelling vocal performance is important for this pitch! LYRIC Tip: They’re looking for lyrics about starting over, new beginnings, and/or fresh starts. Anything in that ballpark could be considered. Do your best to keep your lyrics on the universal side, avoiding specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity. Do NOT copy the referenced acts or songs in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a very broad and general guide for the range of possible tempos, textures, and overall emotional vibe and spirit. Broadcast quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). The estimated license fee for this placement is (up-to) $7,500, depending on the ultimate use. This is a Non-Exclusive, Direct-to-Music Supervisor pitch. You'll get 100% of the sync fee, and 100% of any applicable performance royalties. Plus, you'll also keep 100% of your Publishing and Master ownership. You need to own or control your Master and Copyright to pitch for this opportunity. Please submit as many Songs as you’d like online or per CD. All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis - No full critiques. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59PM (PST), on Sunday, November 26th, 2017. TAXI #Y171126AC
