Alt Rock Songs Dispatch Forward

Post by bigbluebarry » Tue Apr 07, 2009 6:40 am

Here's the listing: ALTERNATIVE ROCK SONGS a la Foo Fighters, Audioslave, Queens of the Stone Age, etc. are wanted by the Creative Director in the music division of a Major Television Network. She is working on a television pilot for a well-known cable network about a female surgeon stationed in Iraq who is dealing with overcoming major obstacles both on the base and in her personal relationships. Lyrical content should reflect these type of situations but in a universal way, meaning they don’t have to reference “war”, etc., but they should talk about facing challenges and overcoming hardships. Recordings must be Broadcast Quality (great home recordings are fine) and the performances must be excellent. Remember you are pitching to a Creative Director at a major television network, so the bar doesn’t get any higher than this for film and TV. You must own all publishing rights (synch and master) to your song in full and you’ll want to have work-for-hire agreements from any musicians who played on your recording. 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 2:00pm (PST) on Tuesday, March 24, 2009. TAXI #D090324ARI got this one last week for the first co-write that Logan and I did together, "Won't Go Back Again." You can hear it on my profile - http://www.taxi.com/barryfrench or try your luck with this link - http://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_ ... ream=trueI would have posted this sooner but between my job, the Christmas project that Joel and I are working on, several other co-writes that I'm in the midst of AND the library deal that keeps asking me if I have any more metal tracks (after he just signed the last 5 I wrote for him) I'm having to be extra mindful of my time. But I'm not going anywhere, I'm still around.- Big Blue
