Sometimes you hear a song and it hit you right between the ears, it sticks in your head and jumps up at you last thing at night, cleaning the yard, driving your car and you go "Damn that's catchy".

Well with thirty years in the business (Top Ten Writer / Producer and performer, including writing for the wonderful Gloria Gaynor) I have spotted songs well before they were polished into a hit. My friend played me a rough demo and wasn't sure about it. I nearly fainted, "That's Top Ten my friend" I told him.

I was wrong. It went to Number One in the UK for three weeks!

I hear hits. It's in my DNA. So let me hear what you have and I will give you my brutally honest critique. I will not blow smoke at you. I will tell you what I think and what could be done (if needed) to make it better.

Successful songwriting or performance isn't always a matter of making it "big", or becoming a popular radio hit-though it can never hurt!

That being said, there are details to composition, performance, recording/mixing, and your own internal confidence that can make all the difference in the sound you make, and what others hear.

I have over 25 years of industry experience, in the studio, on the stage and among the decision makers that can provide you and/or your band specific advice to help you achieve the results you want with your music, whatever your goal.

Artists Only: Detailed Evaluation & Review

If your passion is to entertain and edify people with your talent, this is your opportunity to be heard.

We are looking for artists with exceptional, recognizable voices and styles to sign to our artist development company. Your ability to write your own songs is a plus but not a necessity.

Please give us a detailed description of your performing experience, artists with whom you identify and who have influenced you, known artist(s) for whom you could open, and the amount of touring you would be able to do based on your relationships and/or job. If you would like us to hear complete songs, submit them, or if you'd rather give us a taste of some different songs, you can submit a show reel medley not longer than five minutes. For every submission, we'll open a conversation with you so we can go further than just a critique of the submission. That conversation will stay open until we've given you every observation and piece of advice we can think of. We won't mince words, so be prepared to get an extremely detailed and honest evaluation of your talent, including what we think your strengths and weaknesses are and what we believe your chances of making it as an artist would be. A small percentage of artists rise to the top. If you aspire to be in that number, let us hear from you. This opportunity is somewhat higher in price than the average opportunity on Xray because we will take the time to deeply evaluate your songs, videos and links. We can't guarantee that we will be able to work with you, but at the minimum, you'll benefit from our 50 years experience in the music industry.
