https://youtu.be/crIbyrjQyfA I'm curious how and to whom, to shop his songwriting. He's hit some brick walls. He's a great guy, with low key stage demeanor.
DM, I recently became a DJ at a non-commercial radio station, KDVS 90.3FM https://kdvs.org If this guy has an MP3 or something that's not YouTube (Soundcloud?), I'd like to play him on my show. PM me and I'll send you my email address. I don't know how much that would promote him as a songwriter, but I like this song.
Sign him up to a blues festival or something? Most of the festivals I go to are usually local folks and good way to get heard and press out some cds etc, sell them cheap or even single give away.
