I'm pretty sure that if your song really catches hold of someone's imagination, they will want to use them. Social media pages are a good way of getting exposure.

Just make sure that you have copyrighted your songs. That way no one can steal them.
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up. Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Thank you guys for the replies.It seems like the traditional music industry rules are the thing of the pass especially with streaming. But I notice some songwriters charge a fee for their songs and still keep copyright and publishing. Is this a no no or is it acceptable in this day and age?

Hello All
I am a songwriter i am in search of artist to record my songs. Most of the artist i come across in my opionion is a waste of my time one minute they want to pursue music the next they not sure.
Well anyway i have several reference songs recorded and i thought to post them on my social media page to promote my writing Do you thik artist will want to use my songs even though its been heard by my followers on social media? Welcome. Are you using Band in a Box in your recording process? Songwriting, artists, and the brass ring. It sounds like most of the artists you know are not actually artists. Musical artists are driven with a passion for the music. So the question is... can you post songs and still plug them. Yep. A great song is a great song and it doesn't matter who recorded it before or who's heard it. If the artist likes it, none of that matters. they can and will record it. Just look at the list of big names who covered songs done already by someone else. Copyright? Unless you are writing killer songs, and likely have a few hits, no one is out there looking to steal your songs. If you've ever tried to get them to the hands of a nashville or LA based artist, you know exactly what I'm talking about when I say they don't even want to listen to your song let alone steal it.

You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
