I’m Kind Of A Big Deal…In A Store Near You!!
One of the best things about sharing my music with you is the feedback I get from listeners. For an artist like me who doesn’t have access to radio play, feedback is sometimes hard to come by and always appreciated.
There is a great website, based in Amsterdam, called Tribe of Noise. They are, first and foremost, about the music and the music community that they have created. They have also been very successful at in store placement for their artists throughout the world. Here in The U.S. CDBaby has placed several of my songs for in store placement all over the place!
It is a great way to get my music heard, since terrestrial radio play is nearly impossible for an unsigned artist like me to get.
What has been really cool about the song placement is the feedback I’ve been getting all over the internet, including comments on my youtube channel. People who hear the songs in stores, especially my song “She Walks Away,” have been searching for it online and finding it on youtube. They are leaving the best comments! Here are a few of them:

“Found it!!! This plays at work (Walgreens) all the time, and I wanted to find it. Finally did! We all love the song, and bust out singing whenever it comes on. Customers and all!! Great song :)”

“They play this song on the Safeway music network overnights and I had to find out who sang it. I love it! I’ll have to check out more songs from you!”

“Another Kroger employee here. We actually play a lot of good music there, evidently. May not be the kind of fame you want, but hey, you got fans.”
So, Thanks to Tribe Of Noise and CDBaby for getting my songs heard by people who would have never known to look for them and a big thanks to the people who are taking the time to find the songs and leave such great comments! Every time I get one, it makes my day!!
If you would like to check out all the songs on my most recent CD and leave your own comments you can by clicking here! You too can make my day!!
Yeah, I’m kind of a big deal! 🙂
Hi Phil, I received the 3 songs a really enjoyed them my husband love your guitar music.
Thanks again! I am so happy that you are both enjoying the songs!! Feel free to spread the word!!
Hello…
Yes, I like your music. And I am very picky… Especially when an artist is new to me. “Right Behind The Rain” was love immediately. And “She Walks Away” grew on me. By the 3rd ‘listen’, I was sold on your style, sound and lyrics. There was a 3rd song I found myself quite drawn to as well. Thank you. And thanx for asking!!!
Thanks again for the kind words, Lois!! Your my new favorite person!! 🙂
