woohoo!! 2 placement day!

Post by JohnnyP » Wed Mar 24, 2021 3:25 pm

Just got an email from a library I met in Jan of 2017 that my song "New Place To Go" was placed in episode 7 of "Diary of a Future President"!! And then I checked Instagram and found I had a Y&R placement today!

Thanks again TAXI for the training, and all of the opportunities to meet the movers and shakers in the sync world!

Here's the song from Y&R "Breathe Again" https://soundcloud.com/jp-pearson-1/bre ... NiRblQgDiC

here's the song from "Diary of a Future President" https://soundcloud.com/jp-pearson-1/new ... CPyDfuogNy

"New Place To Go" was written in my days of switching from a country pop writer to more straight-ahead pop and indie folk styles. I listened to a bunch of TAXI listings and really tried to go for that indie folk style but as you can hear a lot of country is showing through!

I thought that song was just lost in a library somewhere for the last 4+ years. Man was I wrong!

Ha Peter! Yes, I do believe I’ll have a double now that you mention it!
Yes it’s been a good day. I’ve always heard that “you have to have a lot of music out there before the placements come”. I’m buying into that line of thought today!

Congratulation JP... as usual nice songs.

Ha Andre! Yeah I’m good at stating the obvious right? 😉 And thanks for the nice words🙂

Seriously it’s always been a struggle for me to sign songs to most any library. Usually several hundred $ goes into every vocal song- and that’s not factoring in my time..
I used to worry quite a bit that I was signing away my stuff to the “wrong” companies.
Now it’s vett as best I can and write more!!
