New library deal… 2 years after forward!

Post by ksutton1207 » Fri Sep 09, 2022 11:28 am

I just inked an initial album deal with a UK-based library that reached out from a TAXI forward.

Looking back on my submissions, I believe the track was from a July 2020 listing for Blues Rock Instrumentals.... and here we are two years later! They're open to tons of new music (released as 4-5 track EPs, which is a nice twist), so I imagine I'll be keeping them busy for a while. They're partnered with a well-known LA based library (as a sub-publisher, I believe), so I'm eager to see where these tracks may end up.

A pleasant surprise for sure. :D You just never know when you'll hear from a forward!

Great news Kyle! Congrats and it's good to hear that an old forward can still materialize into a deal years later.

That they even can keep track of what they did 2 years ago is impressive and leaves some hope for my 34 tracks forwarded in 23 listings this year (only for 2 I got contacted and signed them from two different listings by the same company!). P.A.T.I.A.N.C.E. ommmmmhhhh....

I love hearing this. Good luck! This gives the rest of us hope for our unsigned forwards as well.
