On this episode of TAXI TV, we'll let you do A&R song reviews for a HUGE, Multi-Platinum Country Act!
If you submitted for this Country song request, TAXI #S200218CS, you really don't want to miss this episode of TAXI TV! Here's why...
There are three things we haven’t done in a while on TAXI TV:
1. Listen to TAXI Member forwards and returns, and...
2. Listen to forwards and returns from a Country listing that got 307 submissions!
3. Put you in the A&R Hot Seat to see if you agree with TAXI's screeners or not!
If you've ever wondered, "How good does a song need to be to get forwarded by TAXI for a HUGE, Multi-Platinum, Multi-Award-winning act?" then you're going to love this episode!
Here's the request we got from the Major Label A&R Executive!
TAXI # S200218CS
CONTEMPORARY COUNTRY SONGS with Male Vocals are needed by a Major Label A&R Executive for a HUGE, Multi-Platinum, Multi-Award-winning act!
He’s looking for Songs in All Tempos that could be found on a playlist with:
“My Miracle” by Brad Paisley
“We Were” by Keith Urban
“Living” by Dierks Bentley
TAXI Tip: The bar will be really high for this request, and only the best of the best will be forwarded; but if you should happen to get a cut with this artist, it could be completely career-changing!
Please submit radio-friendly Songs that are rooted in traditional Country, yet just modern enough to be competitive with the current Country charts. Make sure your lyrics tell your Songs’ stories with plenty of visual details and a conversational tone. If you want to get the A&R Executive and the Artist excited about cutting your Songs, be sure your vocals are well-performed and have honest Country-style deliveries.
NOTE: Stripped-Down demos and full productions are both okay to submit. Demo quality should be competitive with Songs being pitched on the Row.
Your recordings need to be well-balanced and good enough to represent your Songs well. Please submit as many Songs as you’d like, online or per CD. Please include lyrics. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by a TAXI Screener. All Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PST) on Tuesday, February 18th, 2020. TAXI # S200218CS
