Well, I’m too old for American Idol, and too lazy to busk in the streets, so I’m playing in Global Rising Song this week. It’s a mix of song competition, fundraiser and support for musicians, where fans vote for their favorites. It’s a fun thing I’ve done before on my visits to Nashville, and during COVID they moved online. Everyone who votes for me will get a free song for your trouble. You can check it out by going to the link below: http://globalrisingsong.com
Award-winning, original acoustic songs with "the kind of lyrics that make Nashville writers salivate."

It doesn't have to be a professional video, but IMHO it helps. It's an ongoing event, so it you're interested, check it out. It does get you some visibility, and even some money, even it you don't win (I did not). Of course, you will find out who your friends are.

The song that got the most votes is a video in that it's on YouTube, but is just a still picture, so I guess a fancy video isn't a must. You can just take a song and upload it to YouTube. To be honest, I though the song was pretty mediocre. I guess it's one of those things where it's a matter of how many friends you can get to vote, rather than how good the song is. The judges' pick was better, but not exactly great.

I still have dreams about my last cowgirl!
I sent Garth Brooks a song last year--A COWBOY'S DREAM--Of course he didn't take it--But i told him I could have been a COWBOY too in my Dreams!
