I ran across your Gulfsongs and am happy to see someone on the opposite side of the US from me helping out. I just wrote lyrics for a Gulf Coast song and am wondering how to get it out there where it will do some good. Any ideas? Thanks. Sandy from Florida
USA Today was holding a song competition - http://www.kink.fm/Gulf-Songwriting-Contest/7576467 - but the deadline was yesterday. Honestly don't think I have anyone to give a song to ... but great that you're writing and hope you get someone to perform it.
