  4. Hard hitting rocking R&B RENE PORTE is definately creating a buzz in Long Beach Ca.
    You can find her rocking on the 3rd street side of the Promenade on Fridays farmers market. The girl is BAAD!! on that guitar and her earthy voice, strong like Patty La Belle, I also checked out her TV show call
    PORTE GROOVE, the girl is really making some noise her in Long Beach. Call Charter Communication for the next airing of her show. But she hot LIVE!! You are certain to hear about Rene. Her new email is portemusic@hotmail.com

      Thank you Kyle for supporting my efforts as an mentor and artist. My primary
      purpose is to encourage young ones to express themselves through art, poetry,
      and music. As a young girl I found love in 6 strings, because I wasn't taught what
      love was. I sought it out through music, by the time I was 13, I was playing jazz standards, Duke Ellington, Mercer, Count Basie, Fitzgerald and others. My love for poetry, escalated when I was 9 years old, I wrote my 1st song.I enjoy helping others embellish their skills in the arts. I have 1 video on youtube under girlinstrumentalist. feel free to e-mail for support.

    I was signed by Sylvia Rhone when she was Pres. of east/west(Atlantic). Never got album budget approval. I wrote “Shelter” for Cheap Trick which appears on their 1997 self titled c.d. Steven Tyler has taken a very big interest in me however I have yet to find my place in the biz. Although I have written for Cheap Trick, and Steven has become a great friend…..my music is more on the David Bowie,Prince side of things. Anyway your program sounds great. Seems its to late for me to apply? I’d appreciate any updated info if availible.
    Thank You,
    Jamie

    i am broke;always have been;i am a songwriter/recording artist in need of everything.The Dangling@myspace is all i’ve got.It’s just me playing and singing into an almost worthless tape recorder.i had to record my stuff over and over before i could get what i got,not much.Most of my material ca’nt be recorded that way.Wo’nt you please help?

  7. I stopped recording songs because I could’t afford to. On the website I have only a few songs (not the strongest) many better ones that I could never complete. I still have songs exploding and I want to be able to record them and place them with established/upcoming artists.

    1. Dear friend:
      Most publishers listens to the content of the song. The story, the foundation
      with a piano or guitar. Many artists listen to a song that touch something inside
      perhaps they can identify with. Please don't give up, you can make a difference
      in someone's life that was their story. Rene' Porte'

    my peers tell me i am one of the best songwriters in the world but just simply undiscovered because i don’t have a connection to send songs to. i write for all types of styles and i am a musician and produce songs as well. i seek help in grant fund info, sponsorship who can help me and a reputable label or person who will be willing to accept my mp3 songs that i will send to audition. thank you very much.
