Looking for Musicians

Hi there!

We're going to need songs for various episodes--montages, background music, party scenes---throughout our production and we're looking for musicians who would be interested in partnering with us. This is a great opportunity for artists who are looking to get some exposure for their music. (We can't offer any financial compensation but we'll mention you on our website, in the video description, etc.)

For the most part we're looking for acoustic, ukelele/guitar, strummy sorts of songs, but we might need other styles.

If this is something you'd be interested in, you can submit your music to us at projectdashwood@gmail.com with "music submission" in the subject line.

Please spread the word and thanks for your support!
