In quarter 1 of 2015, for example, they took one of my full length bluegrass songs.... under 3 minutes total length, and did their own editing and used that one song in over 70 cues for 4 different shows. That song is not on any of my music sites. Heck I'd have never guessed that song would be the one they picked.

In fact, I have never heard how it was used in the various shows and the made for TV movies. That is often the case. A statement shows up with a check from your PRO and it tells you what song in which shows and well.... good luck trying to find that show on-line. You normally have to wait a year for the new season to come out.

To me, it really doesn't matter. I'm busy writing and sending in more music. Maybe one day I'll get a chance to hear it and how they used it. For now, it's Write, Submit, Write, Submit...repeat. It starts slow and may be many months or even years before you get a cut. You just have to stay at it. Listen to what the current trends are.

Bluegrass used to be the hot music of the day... now I'm hearing more guitar based Rock cues and acoustic guitar cues. Remember when Uke music was the hot thing? Not anymore. Every 6 to 12 months you will notice a change. Stay Current.
