Songwriter looking for publishing deal and representation. 

Attended Fordham University in NYC and majored in English and Communications. Wrote film reviews for the college newspaper. While attending college, I did an internship at Penthouse magazine in their editorial department, helping edit and research articles, some of famous musicians that included some of their songwriting processes (I was also responsible for opening incoming mail - yikes!). 

I am a self taught musician, teaching myself late, in my late teens. I sang other groups and artists songs for a while and Irish traditional music (being of Irish descent) but soon grew tired of it. So, I wrote my first song in 2001. "Can't Wait" (that original recording from 2000 is listed om my home page).  I started really writing steadily in 2007. I wrote about 50 songs during the period. I write Country, Pop, Folk, Rock, Blues, Singer Songwriter, Alternative, Jazz, Instrumental, children's songs.

My song "Other Sky" was picked for an opportunity to be placed in a commercial but the deal fell through. The music publisher has said they like the song enough to shop it around to other advertisers and other opportunities.  They have also reviewed my other songs and want to shop those around as well. My song, "Lazy Moon" is under consideration to be placed in an upcoming Indie Movie.

My song " Could this be Home?" is under consideration for use by an ad agency. A few of my songs where under consideration for a few different opportunities but were not selected in the end.

My song" My Kind of Loser " was picked to be in a Podcast called "Women of Substance" which will air sometime In March to 10,000 listeners and 60,000 social networking hits. "My Kind of Loser" is also on 2 Top Ten lists on Broadjam currently ( County Top-Ten and Production Top-Ten.  And my song " Other Sky" is on the alternative/ pop Top -Ten

Thanks,
Neil

Hey Neil,
Frankly, your sound already has a strong identity, which is rare.
But what usually holds artists back at that point isn't the music, it's how everything around it is positioned; branding, PR narrative, and how it's introduced to the right spaces (film, licensing, etc.).

I work with creatives on that side, making sure the music actually opens doors, not just streams.
Have you started exploring that yet?

Hi, I checked out your music and you've got solid potential for sync licensing.
One thing I've noticed working with artists is that even great tracks often get overlooked due to small but critical things like metadata, structure, or licensing readiness.
Do you currently prepare your releases with sync opportunities in mind, or are you mainly focused on streaming and promotion?
Happy to share some insights, you can reply here or email me at belovedsteve760@gmail.com

Hi Neil Fergus,
I've been reviewing a few catalogs on Broadjam, and your name came up in that process.
I work closely with artists on the sync side, specifically identifying what's actually holding strong records back from being considered for placements.
I'd like to take one of your tracks through a Sync-Ready Audit.
That means looking beyond the music itself and into the details that supervisors quietly filter for metadata structure, registration alignment, and overall pitch readiness. Just a clear breakdown of where your track stands and what could make it more placement-ready.

If you're open to it, send me a link to the track you'd want reviewed: wuradigitals@gmail.com
Best regards,
