FUN, UPBEAT POP-ROCK/POP-PUNK SONG

Post by mus » Mon Dec 29, 2008 2:21 am

Actually, this dates from the end of October just after I joined.It's the track no. 1. Get Better on my MySpace pageDISPATCH - FUN, UPBEAT POP-ROCK/POP-PUNK SONGS a la Good Charlotte meets Green Day (great Pop/Punk/Rock, with positive lyrics), McFly, My Chemical Romance, Simple Plan, The Veronicas, Bowling For Soup, Paramore, etc. are needed urgently by an established Indie Label who is releasing a project for a band with members that span a wide age range (10-30ish) - their primary audience will be the “tween” crowd, so lyrics need to be appropriate. Lyrics can range from the point of view of family values from either parent or kid perspective to crushes, surf/skate, having fun, hanging with friends,dreams, school, romance, etc. Humor is welcome, but be sure the lyrics are clean and the concepts will connect to the target audience range. REALLY catchy Chorus hooks and uptempo/high energy music will really make the difference here - be sure the sound is more Pop than Punk, more fun than angry/angst. Nothing too serious for this one. A current and cutting edge sound and upbeat lyrical approach will catch the most attention - they need radio hits and will be focused on securing the singles. Please send your very best... we’ll need to be VERY selective here and send only what fits the request exactly. Male or female vocals are just fine. Please submit one to three songs online or per CD, include lyrics. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS - NO CRITIQUES FROM TAXI - and must be received no later than Noon PST on October 27, 2008. TAXI #D081027PREncouraging to get a forward even if nothing comes of it, I guess.

Imagine a steel cage match between Daughtry, Coldplay, Paramore and Demon Hunter with Joe Satriani as the referee...
