Okay, here's the deal. I just finished a rock album but the catch is I wrote all the music and lyrics and played all of the instruments. My good friend and singer from our former rock band from a few years back did the lead vocals. So the album is a "band" but we're really just a couple of dudes. I invested in this year's Songwriter's Market and found 20 labels I'd like to submit demos to, however I'm not even sure it's worth the effort. Who would sign a one man band & a vocalist? My second question (was that first blob actually a question?) is this: would you recommend submitting a cover song as part of a demo package. We did a total remake, though stayed true to the spirit of another artist's song from the '80's, giving it a modern sound and texture. I think it's killer and I've seen bands get their break from covers (Alien Ant Farm - covered Michael Jackson's "Annie"). Do I dare add this to the few originals I feel are our best work? Lot's to think about; appreciate the feedback gang.
