According to the All Music Guide (www.allmusic.com), we were one of the most popular groups in the Detroit, Michigan area from 1967 to 1969. We played the Grande Ballroom on many occasions, opening for The Byrds, Procol Harum, B.B. King, Albert King, Moby Grape and on occasion, we were the headliner. After the demise of Wilson Mower Pursuit, I recorded one of my original songs, "She Makes Me Happy", for Capitol Records with a group called The Shaggs. A heavily Beatles influenced song.
in December 1967 at the Grande Ballroom the first time we played there, we opened for Moby Grape.

Bio

According to the All Music Guide (www.allmusic.com), we were one of the most popular groups in the Detroit, Michigan area from 1967 to 1971. We played the Grande Ballroom on many occasions, opening for The Byrds, Procol Harum, B.B. King, Albert King, Moby Grape and on occasion, we were the headliner. The first time we played the Grande Ballroom, we were mistaken for The Cream, as our lead guitar player, a born perfect pitch musician, had perfectly reproduced Eric Claptons' guitar, complete with wah wah, on Tales of Brave Ulysses.

Hey there,
Frankly, your sound already has a strong identity, which is rare.
But what usually holds artists back at that point isn't the music, it's how everything around it is positioned; branding, PR narrative, and how it's introduced to the right spaces (film, licensing, etc.).

I work with creatives on that side, making sure the music actually opens doors, not just streams.
Have you started exploring that yet?

Hi, I checked out your music and you've got solid potential for sync licensing.
One thing I've noticed working with artists is that even great tracks often get overlooked due to small but critical things like metadata, structure, or licensing readiness.
Do you currently prepare your releases with sync opportunities in mind, or are you mainly focused on streaming and promotion?
Happy to share some insights, you can reply here or email me at belovedsteve760@gmail.com

Hi

I've been reviewing a few catalogs on Broadjam, and your name came up in that process.

I work closely with artists on the sync side, specifically identifying what's actually holding strong records back from being considered for placements.

I'd like to take one of your tracks through a Sync-Ready Audit.
That means looking beyond the music itself and into the details that supervisors quietly filter for metadata structure, registration alignment, and overall pitch readiness.

Just a clear breakdown of where your track stands and what could make it more placement-ready.

If you're open to it, send me a link to the track you'd want reviewed: wuradigitals@gmail.com
Best regards,
