Paul Cufflin was recently informed that his Swamp Blues song “I Do Believe My Time is Coming” was placed in Episode 2, Season 4 of the FX show Sons of Anarchy, which will air on September 13! He also signed a deal to have his song featured in a TV commercial that is running in the Pacific Northwest for the TacoTime retail outlet. “These deals have generated a significant income for me from my music over the last couple of months, and quite frankly this would not have been possible if it weren’t for TAXI. They have opened doors for me which would otherwise have been closed,” he said.

As a result of a Dispatch listing, James Henderson had three of his songs, “Life’s A Holiday”, “Come On,” and “See You On the Other Side,” licensed into the FX television show The League. “I am so grateful to TAXI for providing me with exciting opportunities for my music!” he said.

William Naughton had one of his tracks was placed into the Lifetime series Army Wives. “How does TAXI help me? I really go over the videos. I have bought Robin [Frederick]’s books and continue to read them! Every now and then, one of my songs is forwarded – persistence IS the name of the game!” he said.

After co-writing her song “B 4 the Bling” with fellow TAXI member, Richard Bassett, Gabrielle Guisti Kennedy submitted to a few listings and struck music library gold! Gabrielle was signed to a very TAXI friendly and very successful music placement company, and now has an invitation to submit more music to them! “As a direct result from a TAXI forward, I signed a three-year publishing deal with a music library in L.A. for my song. I now also have an open door to submit new music to this company when I have it. TAXI rocks!” she said.

Both Shane Searles and Mike Barressi recently let us know, that as a result of deals they had signed with a successful independent music library after being forwarded through TAXI, their songs were placed on the CMT program CMT’s Next Superstar! “TAXI is great because not only does it give me opportunities for my existing music, but it actually forces me to create new opportunities for myself, by writing music for listings that I might not have otherwise thought about doing,” Shane said.
