After watching an episode of TAXI TV I was inspired to write an instrumental cue for a show like Duck Dynasty or Swamp People. This is the result. Let me know what you think. Did I hit the mark or what could be improved upon? I appreciate your opinions.

(I have posted the video from TAXI in the Songwriting forum. The link to that is at the bottom of this post.)

Temp: 65bpm
RealTracks
2475:Bass, Acoustic, Held Simple
2169:Guitar, Resonator, Soloist Country Rob
364:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking

Well done Samuel. I can definitely hear this playing in the background of a movie or tv show. Very enjoyable. Resonator slide was super

Samuel it sounds pretty good to me! I could hear this cue in an episode of one of these type shows. It would probably be more appropriate for a more serious/sad segment of a show given the more mellow/melancholy vibe. Thanks, Torrey

That works. The stop is cool, though it might "draw attention to itself" as background - so would need to be place at just the right spot in a video...

I think it works great!! Great simple combo of instruments and a nice progression Samuel! Take care. Greg

From what ive read and watched on YouTube tutorials many times the entire piece will not be used. They might only use 15 to 30 seconds. So the break acts like an optional stoping point.
