We have already written the lyrics and created a rough demo using Suno to communicate the melody, pacing and overall feel. The demo will be shared with shortlisted applicants as a creative reference. The finished song will initially be used in organic social media content, with the possibility of appearing in paid social or other advertising if the campaign gains traction. What we’re looking for Strong bluegrass or Americana musicianship Confident banjo playing A lead vocalist with character and personality The ability to record convincing harmony vocals Professional recording and production capabilities A lively, authentic sound rather than something overly polished or commercial Experience producing music for advertising, branded content or short-form video would be helpful.
