Union Ridge Publishing previews new songs online

Bluegrass songwriters have been quick to embrace the newer technologies and distribution methods available to small companies and even hobbyist or part time writers and publishers. We have heard from several who, like Mark Brinkman of Brinksongs, regularly post demo recordings of new material on his web site.

We just received a note from Tim Corbett that demos of material of his, and that of Kelly Davis can be sampled on the Union Ridge Publishing Company site.

Both of them are members of the bands, Rush Hour and Union Ridge, and invite any recording artists or producers searching for new, original songs to visit their site and sample the demos.
