But that low #LA ... change the agreement ... what to call it?"

I'm not sure of the question so I'll leave it at that.

Looks like I cheered too soon, for right after making my last post in this thread - a month ago - I followed that link and submitted my two primary emails to that place in good faith.... and not so much as a word back yet! smirk

Hi Eddie

You should get an email with the current song of the week to cover. I got one on Tuesday. This week's song is Robbie Williams "Feel". You can also follow their facebook page where they make the announcements.

Thanks, I was getting quite frustrated (and suspicious of these guys) over not hearing anything from them... which I still haven't, btw, so if this is all working fine and dandy for you, then something is seriously amiss here smirk

Here is a cover for the latest www.coverinaweek.com challenge that I produced featuring my duo partner Lebz Muzo and guitar teacher Micah Myers. Lebz just had the right kind of voice for this unusual song. He sang the lead, did all the backing vocals and recorded the guitars all in about 1/2 an hour flat. Micah provided the lead guitar. I used BIAB for the drums, bass and electric piano.

I would love to see some othe BIAB users participate in these challenges

I even sent these guys a direct email message - not a word back.

I'm now wishing I never heard of them in the first place smirk

Semplice, è Do7 con la settima al basso(La# più comunemente indicato come Sib). Ha una sonorità molto particolare e gradevole che lo rende però difficilmente distinguibile dai rivolti più comuni dove la settima non è al basso. E' un rivolto comune nella bossanova (ad esempio "Agua de março" di A.C. Jobim). Ciao

Translation of anzonche comment per Google:

Simple, it is Do7 with the seventh at the bottom (La # most commonly referred to as Sib). It has a very particular and pleasant sound that makes it difficult to distinguish from the most common revolts where the seventh is not at the bottom. It is a common address in the bossanova (eg "Agua de março" by A.C. Jobim). Hello

All I get is an error message when i try to upload. There's a bar that says 33% done even though I haven't uploaded anything yet. Then it tells me artist name and genre are wrong. After two days of this, I'm giving up. I don't see how to contact or get any help. Hope they fix it.

UPDATE: They sent me a very nice email with alternate uploading instructions. So I sent one. Fingers crossed they like it. grin If I get in I'll add a link when I hear back.



Wish it would. When I click next I get "There was a problem with your submission. Errors have been highlighted below." And there's an asterisk by artist name and genre. I sent them an email just now.

With Band-in-a-Box® 2026, we've released 202 incredible new RealTracks (in sets 468-488) in a variety of genres—featuring your most requested styles!

Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!

Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.

Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.

Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!

And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library.

Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
