Don't feel bad if your song wasn't seleced.  There was some competition on this one.

A. Gaven Payne -- Country

Song Pitch 2 - Closed

Pitch 2. A. Gaven Payne – Country

Hello all!

Below are the selections for the above named pitch.  Please note that there was a great deal of leniency applied in submitting these songs as compared to the submissions criteria that’s documented in the “Site Blog” tab on the home page.  It is very important that Songpress Music obtains and maintains a high level of integrity and strong reputation for submitting quality materials to all solicitors.  Truth is, I’m submitting songs here because I like them, even though they violate our rules and criteria.  Consider this a gift!  We will be standing by our documentation when it is complete and everyone has had a chance to understand it.  I know this pitch was a rush, and so I’m cutting some slack. But, as time goes on, we will be tightening up!  Song ratings will include adherence to rules, formats, lyrics matching the demos, etc.  When there are enough submissions to result in more competition, adherence to all the details will become much more critical.

Selected songs are:

Song                                                             Member          

Cut Me Slow                                             SLynn

It’s All Because                                         Vaughan Ray

Once We Start Rockin                              Vaughan Ray

Well Bye                                                    Vaughan Ray

 

Congratulations to those who were selected!  And I thank everyone that submitted.

While I won’t be able to do this in the future for everything, I will explain the issues we found with both the selected songs and the non-selected songs if the submitting members request me to do so via support ticket.
