I have something I''m working on that is about music and musicians - so for thematic reasons it would be nice to have a little vocal track to go with it. What I *want* is to find a girl who sings and plays guitar, is NOT famous or signed to a record deal, and is willing to play/sing for about 30 seconds in exchange for a small payment and some publicity. I don''t care whether it''s a struggling indie or somebody''s kid sister, as long as the sound''s okay. Young and eager is the desired sound, not professional and polished. Where would I go to find such a person? Browsing music licensing sites drives me insane... "royalty-free" music seems to be all synth, no singers anywhere...

papillon, I am currently working as the recording engineer for just such a young lady. If you like, send her an email with some thoughts about what you are looking for at "allie at alliewest dot com" and just mention that krikkit gave you her mail. I''ll be getting in touch with her tonight anyway, so we can get a ball rolling on this pretty quickly and see if its what you''re looking for.

Take care,

Krikkit
