Music To Societies Ears

Aug. 11, 2011 - PRLog -- It started in 2007 when Milliea Taylor McKinney would pursue her dream of being a songwriter. And when Marsha Brown Of Brandon Hills Music and Jandar Records would crack open a window for the up and coming songwriting artist.
Milliea back then a teacher of creative writing and a passion to be published would submit her tribute to the legends of country "Honky Tonk Hall Of Fame" to be signed with Brandon Hills Music and Jandar Records. She then began to excel in her abilities and Marsha knew right away she had flair for words and a reputation for being a wordsmith. Marsha a songwriter herself and a Publisher and owner of Brandon Hills Music (BMI), LLC  which was established in 2005 by Marsha L. Brown and former business partner, Mike Heath d/b/a Heath Brown Music (ASCAP), and Steven Lynn Music (SESAC).

Together, they have a major label release with Universal Records artist Steff Nevers, album title is "Closest to my Heart", song title "Let it Rain" by Larry Migliore and Kevin Gallerallo.  Also Buddy Lewis recorded "Honky Tonk in Heaven" by Mike Heath and Bob Alexander released on Ozark Records.  Mike left the company in the summer of 2007.

Marsha has since had numerous releases, including:  

"There You Are" on David Church’s album, "There You Are", June 2009. The song was written by Marsha Brown and Mike Heath.  David also recorded 2 more songs from Marsha’s catalogue:  "I Don’t Live in Lonely Anymore" by Mike Heath, and "Hang My Hat In Style" by David Wright.  There is also a music video in the works for the song "There You Are".


"Mexico", written by Larry Migliore and Kevin Gallerallo, recorded and released by Warren Doral.  Co-published with Joe F. Mitchell.


"Do You Like My Body", a fantastic pop song recorded by Ginger-Ly, released on Raggaforce.  Co-published with SEI Corp., Big Daddy Music.  Written by Nisa McCall.


"Out of the Blue", a great country song recorded by Tarabeth Echols, Coyote Crude Band, released June 2009.  Written by Judy Klass and Rob Taube.
Marsha is also opening a new chapter in her life with the start of a record label, Jandar Records, LLC.  She will be signing 2 artists:  Country new-comer, Stephanie Anne and Soul/R&B artist, Bobby Cutchins who already has a huge following in Europe and Japan.

Milliea would join forces with co-writer Renee Beach to writer other songs auditioning for the legends of country writing songs such as Talkin' Bout Jr, Carved In Stone, Me Right Now, Legend VIP, Bar Room Affair, Gangster Of Love, Green For Most My Life, and others that would also be signed with Marsha's Brandon Hills Music and Jandar Records. Opening a new chapter to her life as a co- publisher with Marsha and opening up her own business Milliea would venture into Publishing with her own company M.I.A Publishing and Conscious Music Entertainment a Talent Agency she formed to support positive lyrical content for our youth which was inspired by Grammy artist Skyler Jett who after touring 32 countries and traveling overseas replacing Lionel Ritchie would begin a social mission writing and championing his songs for foundations and humanity. Looking back Milliea now has the most incredible gratitude towards her co-Publisher friend and her personal Publisher Marsha Brown reflecting on the reason she now sits behind the desk of her own companies and giving back to humanity in a positive way as she always dreamed to do and she says she owes it to Marsha for opening the opportunity to live her dream and to be all she always dreamed she could be. McKinney, goes on to say had it not have been for Marsha she would have never had the opportunity to work with great people like Pat Melfi, the former VP to MCA Records and Five time promoter of the year not to mention the co-creator and partner to Ken Kragen who was the creator of We Are The World, Hands Across America, and Live Aid. Which only goes to show if you can dream it you also can live it if only you believe.
