7 songs signed to active publsiher - multiple genres

Post by jrkocian » Tue Oct 18, 2011 12:46 pm

Today I received a message from a very active publisher I write for. The relationship was formed due to a TAXI forward. He recently contacted me to write for an upcoming TV special. The network loved the song, but the choir wasn't big enough so they passed on the tune for that show. However, the publisher still wants the song, along with 6 others!

Most of the songs are on my TAXI page:
1. A Spiritual Giant (Americaia/inspriational)
2. Finally Home (Americana/Inspirational)
3. The Big Decision (Game show tension)
4. Don't Know (Game show tension)
5. Nana's Cookie Jar (Jazz, ala 'Peanuts' TV specials)
6. Not That Strong (Pop)
7. Feeling Good Today (Pop)

Pedro,
Thank you very much, I am humbled by your words. I love your song, "Revelation." Great production and arrangement!

Allen,
Thank you my friend! If I recall correctly, I met you in line last year at the Rally (waiting for an open mic number). Do you work in the psychology field? If I am mistaken, I apologize.

Best wishes to you all!!!

Hi James,

If the person you are confusing me with is awesome, no apology is necessary! :lol:

Cheers,
Allen

Thanks James :)
Revelation was released under my electronic alias Fetal Pulse.
It's also my wife's favourite on the album so you are in good company ;)
