TV placement after a first pitch!

Post by TerrellBurt » Sat Sep 14, 2019 4:49 pm

Hey all!

I’ve never had a song pitched by a music library that got placed from the very first pitch...until now! I received an e-mail two days ago that an older Pop co-write called “Addicted” from 2015 got placed in an episode of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend earlier this year.

This particular TAXI friendly library has a cool feature on its website that you can see what projects your songs have been pitched to. And when I looked back at the pitch activity of this song, this was show was its first pitch. This is extremely rare and definitely an exception to the norm! This is a marathon and it’s not common at all to land a placement after its first pitch. Pretty cool though huh?

A collaboration with a TAXI member initially opened the door for me to this library and I now have 30 songs signed with them!

You can hear “Addicted” at https://soundcloud.com/tlburt17/addicted
