ORIGINAL, RETRO-Style SINGER/SONGWRITER SONGS with Female Vocals are needed for a (up-to) $550, Non-Exclusive, Direct-to-Music Supervisor Indie Feature Film placement. This Supervisor is searching for Down-to-Mid-Tempo Songs (Recently recorded, Retro-sounding or Old School, Vintage Recordings can both work) that generally fit in the stylistic wheelhouse of the reference we got from the Music Supervisor: “A Case of You” by Joni Mitchell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6voJjexENok NOTE: They’re not looking for a clone or sound-alike of the above song! Please send well-crafted acoustic-driven Songs with a captivating melody, lyric, vocal, and overall performance. Stripped-down, acoustic guitar/vocal performances, as well as versions with a light ensemble can both work for this pitch! Universal lyrics that avoid references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands and profanity could give you some edge, but we don’t think they’re an absolute necessity, as this song will likely be used as Background Source Music. Please do NOT copy the referenced artist in any way, shape, or form. Use it as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). The estimated fee for this placement is $550, depending on the ultimate placement. This is a Non-Exclusive, Direct-to-Music-Supervisor placement, so you’ll keep 100% ownership of your Master and Composition rights, plus you’ll also get 100% of the sync fee and any applicable performance royalties. You must 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. Time permitting; the Music Supervisor herself might be able to screen submissions for this request. No promises. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59PM (PDT), on Sunday, May 20th, 2018. TAXI #Y180520SS

Congratulations on the forward - VERY interesting song; unusual in the best way... it's your own - right?
Cheers.

I like the way you put that, Peter. Yes, it's my song, with me on piano and vocals. I appreciate the kind words!

Great tune.

This stirred some emotions up in me this morning.

Kind of reminds me of Lucinda Williams mashed with Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez.

Best of luck on getting this placed.
