I can't believe how close we're coming to the end of "Making It 365 Chapter 2". I haven't even begun looking back over the past 357 days to see what has happened but I know it's been life changing.
Between yesterday morning and this morning, I pitched Rodney Atkins' whole team. I know he's still looking for songs for his newest project so I wanted to slide one in there to see if I can get any traction. Last night, I had another great write via Skype with Indiana songwriter, Bill Gue. Bill and I just finished a fun, upbeat, country song that we started a few months back. After wrapping up on that one, we started work on a new pop song.
Tonight is track night. I have a few songs that I need to record roughs to submit to my publisher. I just set up a dropbox folder in which I will submit all my songs for approval. Typically, the way it works is, you submit a batch of songs and your publisher/song plugger goes through and listens. He/she then chooses the best of the best to do full demo versions. Some songs are good enough to stand alone just as an acoustic/vocal or piano/vocal. Some songs never end up seeing the light of day. I guess they all can't be hits. :)
More to come. Stay tuned!
CHAPTER 2: NASHVILLE - The purpose of this blog is to network with at least 1 music industry professional every business day for 365 days with the goal of "making it" as a songwriter/recording artist. Below I will document my efforts, successes, failures and lessons learned daily. Stay tuned!
