White Flag - Greys Anatomy

Three years ago I wrote a song called White Flag in the faaaaarrrrr off hopes that I could get it placed on Greys Anatomy. It was the first song that I wrote with a TV show in mind. (I wrote the entire song while cleaning carpet and recorded all the ideas into my phones voicemail) After putting together a demo, I sent it off to a friend of a friend who worked for the ABC music department and asked if she could get it on the show... she said absolutely not. BUT, she passed it along to the right people and here we are, years down the line and I am a full time ABC song writer. Thank you "friend of a friend!" It is because of you that i do not have to clean carpets anymore, for that i owe you my first child.

Anyways, back to point. Brandon Lady Slayer Collins and I recently started working with a company called Select Tracks. They are a huge independent placement company who got bought out by Bug Music... the LARGEST independent placement company. Yesterday, we while in a meeting with them, Peter Shurkin (the Creative Director) asked me if he could send "White Flag" directly to the Greys Anatomy music supervisor for possible placement. To which i said in a calm-layed back-voice, "Yeah, i mean... that'd be cool."

Really though.. how bitchin would it be to actually complete the first goal that got this whole thing rolling? And now that its actually in arms reach, it could happen. I'll keep you posted.
