S090624IR

INDIE ROCK SONGS a la Minus the Bear, Delta Spirit, Great Northern, etc. are wanted by a Music Supervisor for placement in an online teen scripted drama. He is looking for songs that have a sophisticated Indie sound with clever, captivating lyrics that are also reflective in nature. Instrumental and vocal presentation need to be top-notch! Please be advised that the Supervisor indicated that the licensing fees for this project are on the lower end of the scale, so make sure you are okay with that prior to making your submission. Broadcast quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). Please submit one to three songs online or per CD, include lyrics. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI and must be received no later than Wednesday, June 24, 2009. TAXI #S090624IR
