First deal
Posted: Wed Mar 10, 2010 11:28 am
We got emailed last week by a library wanting to sign a song that I collaborated on with another Taxi member, Donna Wintergreen. This song had been forwarded to them by Taxi in October 2008.
Here's the song:

And here's the listing that it was submitted for:
AAA/ALT ROCK/INDIE POP SONGS WITH VOCALS that sound radio-ready and current are needed by an East Coast Music Library/Publisher for the purpose of Film/TV placements and licensing. This company has signed and placed dozen of TAXI songs, and offers a non-exclusive deal. Songs that have universal lyrics which are general enough to apply to many different scenarios/scenes/plots/etc. will take priority for this one. All approaches and tempos are welcome, but keep in mind that the performances and recordings must be fantastic. Broadcast quality is a must for this one (excellent home recordings should be fine). While all approaches will be considered based on the merits of the song/performance, depressing/melancholy/dark/moody ballads will NOT be the best choice for this listing - the overwhelming majority of these placements will be for TV Commercials/Promos, with a definite possibility for additional Film/TV opportunities.
