Hi Kim,
I wanted to let you know I entered "Kisses on the Wind" and "It Takes a Lot of Money to Look That Cheap" in the Art In Your Ear songwriting contest. "Kisses" took first place in the ballad division and "Cheap" won the country division.
Thanks for making my songs sound so good.

Kim,
I just wanted to let you know that the group, "Beyond Blue Ridge" has selected "Just Another Cowboy" for an artist demo that they are recording. It's not a commercial cut (yet), but obviously could lead to one.
Thanks again for a great demo!

Hi Kim,
I just wanted to let you know that Chris Keaton has five artists who have kept our songs.

-Carmen Rasmussen
-The Roys

The Roys have been featured in Country Weekly magazine and actually have kept eight of our songs. Isn't that exciting!! We just had to let you know.

Re: Rachel Williams
With performances ranging from the raspy style of “Something Worth Saving” to the traditional style of “The Only Thing Harder Than Leaving,” there’s a little some-thing for everyone here. As far as being radio-ready, she could go straight to the airwaves with any of these cuts, but “Final Goodbye” and “On My Way To You” simply need to be mailed to the stations. My personal favorites are the Rondstadt-ish “Uphill” and the dark and moody sound of “Kill Me In The Morning.” I could keep writing... but I would probably run out of adjectives….Rachel Williams is just good…period!

Hey Kim & Susan,
I would like to thank you ladies from the bottom of my heart for all the great mentoring and guidance as I navigate through uncharted waters as an aspiring songwriter.
Susan's weekly E-Tips provide invaluable information on the ins and outs of the business of songwriting. While many songwriters start writing as creative outlet, songwriting in Nashville truly is a business to be approached with focus and determination.
Kim Copeland Productions, I sing your praises! You have provided me with a top-notch demo, far exceeding my expectations. I highly recommend Kim Copeland and her team of professional session players, singers and engineers to anyone looking for a quality professional demo. With Kim, you not only get a kickin' demo, you benefit from her vast knowledge of the music industry, as well.
Kim is all heart but honest as she gently guides your songs (babies) toward the studio, staying true to the soul of the song, while incorporating hints of "Nashville Magic". As a newbie, Kim's song evaluation service has given me a clear understanding of what song structure should look like as well as tips on how to take a good set of lyrics and turn them into a great song.
I'm hooked on Kim's evaluation service...another fine example of Kim's dedication to developing songwriters.
Kim, thank you for making my first studio experience exciting and memorable!
