Happy to report that my track "Bad Bad Blues Band" got a forward for the listing below :D
It has been a while since I had the opportunity to give my guitar a good workout AND put it on tape so this was a blast to do :) :)

Several BLUES INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a Music Supervisor for several (up to) $6,000 placements in a brand new TV Show that just got picked up by a Major Streaming Service!

This Music Supervisor is on the hunt for quite a few Instrumentals in All Tempos that could be found on a playlist with the following references:

"38th Street Blues" by B.B. King

"I Wonder Why" by Otis Rush

"Blues After Hours" by Pee Wee Crayton

"Chitlins Con carne" by Junior Wells' Chicago Blues Band & Buddy Guy

NOTE: This listing is mainly looking for recently recorded Songs in the general production style of the references; but, if you’ve got any great vintage recordings (recorded back in the day), they would love to hear those as well!

Please submit well-produced Blues Instrumentals that could help establish a mood for various bar scenes in a TV show. Soulful motifs, engaging rhythms, bluesy guitars, excellent musicianship, and solid arrangements are all required for this pitch. Organic-based Blues instrumentation will suit your submissions best. High-quality production and authentic-sounding performances are key to nailing this request; so if you are planning to use any virtual instruments, please be sure that they don't sound low-quality, stiff, or obviously MIDI-driven.

All submissions should be between 2 and 4 minutes, give or take. Do NOT copy the referenced artists or songs in any way, shape, or form. Use the references only as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed. Era-appropriate Broadcast Quality will work for vintage recordings.

The estimated license fee for each of these placements is up to $6,000, depending on the ultimate use. This will be a Non-Exclusive, Direct-to-Music Supervisor placement, so you’ll get 100% of the Sync Fee, you’ll keep 100% of your Publishing and Master ownership, and you’ll also get 100% of any applicable performance royalties. No Publisher splits! You must own or control your Master and Copyright to submit for this opportunity. Please submit as many Instrumentals as you’d like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Saturday, April 30th, 2022. TAXI # S220430BL
