Lyrics should be Christian or religiously generic so long as message is uplifting and positive. We will listen to all genres musically (Gospel, Country, R&B, Pop,etc.)

Hit Searchers Music Publishing currently does not use a website for the same reason most publisher do not. Publishing is not a business that is dependent on advertising. We have found in the past (as most publishers have) that a website or any public advertisement of our actual address brings huge amounts of unwanted and unsolicited mail or email submissions. Up until now, we have totally relied on referred business from other industry professionals. Music Xray was suggested to us by one of the other music professionals on the site, Don Ferro of Sweet Rosie Music who personally recommended it as a new source of screening material from unknown artists. We are looking forward to hearing great new artists so please submit only your best material.

I’ve been working in PR for over 15 years and I still love it today as much as I did when I first started at the National Canine Defence League (now The Dogs Trust).

I worked on accounts including The Kentucky Distillers’ Association and Novartis Animal Health. Next for me it was a journey into TV. I worked at Discovery Networks Europe where I was responsible for all trade and consumer PR across the suite of six channels. From there I went on to head up the PR team at Nickelodeon and oversaw the launch of the Nicktoons channel which won PR Week’s Consumer Campaign of the Year in 2003. Prior to launching ENPR with Emma I headed up the communications team at Homechoice and was responsible for all of the consumer and corporate PR. This role included devising and executing the internal and external communications strategy around Homchoice's sale to Tiscali in August 2006.
