Start My Song, a website based in Nashville, has relaunched to provide a unique service to songwriters around the world!

Songwriters can now more easily get their music in front of song publishers, music supervisors, recording artists and advertising agencies looking for the best new songs ready for publishing.

In the past, getting a new song heard by the right person in the music industry required endless amounts of effort and great connections since publishers and music supervisors are constantly bombarded with new material to the point that they are unable to listen to the rising pile of CDs on their desk.

Start My Song is hoping to change this by providing a unique new service to songwriters and music industry professionals everywhere. Start My Song is a web application where anyone can upload their new song demos ready for publishing. Anyone else in the world can listen to and rank the songs allowing Start My Song to create a TOP SONGS list directly on the homepage. All one needs to do is visit Startmysong.com to begin hearing today’s newest material from songwriters everywhere pre-filtered by the end users. The PLAY ALL button makes it even easier as one can just sit back and listen while the top songs playlist plays the newest hits in order of popularity.

When music publishers, music supervisors, recording artists, advertising agencies and others looking for new songs find that hit they’ve been looking for, they can simply click the “Publish / License / Record” button to begin the process of making use of that song.

Each song and artist gets a unique URL making the music on Start My Song easy to share increasing the viral capabilities of the artists’ songs. The ShareThis widget increases the viral capabilities further by allowing users to share each unique link via email or on the social network of their choice directly from the artist’s or song’s page.

Start My Song also works with the iPhone where other flash based streaming music sites fail. Songs played from Start My Song via the iPhone browser will play on the iphone quicktime player as opposed to the normal flash player allowing listeners to hear the newest songs from anywhere.

For more information or to begin hearing the newest songs from around the world visit Start My Song.  You could help pick that next big hit!

Jessica Rae of Start My Song

Jessica Rae was born and raised in Chicago where, at four years old, she was inspired by her grandfather’s bluegrass fiddle playing. She spent most of her early life studying violin, and has performed extensively all around the world. She is a graduate of Michigan State University and holds a classical violin performance degree. It is her singing and songwriting, though, that brings this performer to the limelight. Currently living and performing in Nashville, her songs’ messages are moving, her voice clear and natural.

Jessica’s music industry experience extends beyond being an incredible performer. Her past experience includes advertising sales for Comma Music in Chicago. She has also held a position at Howling Music as a freelance sales representative. She currently holds a position at iV Group, having been with them since 2007. Within these jobs, Jessica sought out new clientele, made presentations, and closed sales. Jessica also assisted in the overall marketing of the corporate brands along with personally creating and implementing new marketing strategies for promotions and advertising. Jessica has experience managing travel arrangements and meetings for large groups, along with event and party planning. Her biggest strength, though, comes from her ever-expanding professional network of relationships in the music, advertising, and film industries.
