Over 800 past events have covered topics such as music publishing, songwriting, music licensing, and artist management, among others. NARIP has also organized pitch sessions where music creators and songwriters can pitch their work to industry professionals for feedback and potential placements.
A NARIP Series: Intimate Pitch Meetings with Top Music Buyers including Music Supervisors, A&R Executives, Personal Artist Managers, Synch Agents & Music Producers
Is your music getting to decision-makers – people who can say YES and write a check?At NARIP’s intimate sessions, you get to meet music buyers including A&R executives, music supervisors, synch agents, personal artist managers and music producers, and pitch for current placement opportunities, representation, and projects, and get immediate feedback and strategy.BACKGROUNDSince 2011, NARIP Music Supervisor Pitch Sessions have secured almost 2,000 placements in blockbuster films, hit television series, global promotion and advertising campaigns, and major studio trailers for NARIP members. Since inception of NARIP’s Synch Agent Pitch Sessions in 2018, twenty (20) NARIP members have signed representation or music publishing deals as a direct result. Other outcomes include collaborations, co-writing, producing and commissioned work.Topics at NARIP’s Pitch Session:
Berliant has managed many artists to multi-platinum and long-term success, he’s a repeat guest, much-loved by NARIP and NARIP members
Jordan opens his list of contacts (see video above), setting up top-level meetings for participants on hearing their talent
Jordan has helped dozens of NARIP members, advancing their careers by offering deals and making introductions to top executives
Meet personal artist manager with current, active, successful artists
Pitch songs directly to Jordan for signing consideration – he can say YESand SIGN ARTISTS.
Get highly targeted, actionable career strategy from Jordan (he’s reallygood at this)
Direct access + firsthand info = better results FOR YOU
Small, focused NARIP Sessions enable one-on-one time and immediate direct feedback to music presented by participants. At NARIP Pitch Sessions, limited to 16 people, you get to know the guest music supervisor, synch agent or producer, and they get to know you. Most important, attendees meet these key players, paving the way for placement, representation, collaboration and ongoing opportunities, and giving them an edge in a competitive market.
WHAT TO EXPECT AT A NARIP PITCH SESSIONPREPARATION IS KEY
NARIP Pitch Sessions – including Music Supervisor, Music Synch Agent, Personal Artist Manager and other Pitch Sessions – are limited to an enrollment of just 16 people. About one week prior to NARIP’s Session, all registrants will get a brief of the guest supervisor’s then-CURRENT music needs. Each registrant will have a chance to pitch in response to the music briefs provided and get immediate feedback to music pitched. Each participant must submit 7 songs (MP3s only please) 36 hours prior to NARIP’s Music Supervisor Session. Please note that due to time constraints you will only be able to pitch your TOP 3 songs for consideration and immediate feedback (more, if time permits). This process takes the mystery out of why a piece of music does or doesn’t fit. On-the-spot feedback enables registrants to re-work tracks and re-submit, which creates a much higher probability to get them licensed (choose well!).
If you do not have music that matches the current needs of the supervisor, fear not! You can still attend and present the top three songs in your catalog. Make sure the songs are unique and captivating. This is helpful because a music supervisor’s needs change constantly. To optimize impact of music you pitch at NARIP’s Music Supervisor Session, we highly recommend that you target the briefs. Good luck and see you there!
BEFORE NARIP’S PITCH SESSION:
NARIP prepares a one-sheet for each participant including your photo and bio for the guest music supervisor to use and review at the event, and to take with him after the event. We will request your photo and bio one week prior to the event. In preparing these materials, we recommend you focus on brief career highlights in your bio and have a professional photo available.
Approximately 5 to 7 days prior to NARIP’s Session, you will be sent a project brief describing several cues needed for a current project(s) of our guest speaker. These often include reference songs or links so that you can hear exactly what he seeks or needs to replace.
You will submit your tracks with writer, publisher and other rights holder information that will also be supplied to the music supervisor during and after NARIP’s Session.
You will get submission and meta-tagging guidelines, and mentoring as to how best to prepare your music for submission.
DURING NARIP’S PITCH SESSION:
You will get to play at least three songs (sometimes more, if time permits) for the guest music supervisor who will provide feedback to you for each one.
NARIP moderator asks very specific questions to help participants learn and understand how to modify their tracks to make these more place-able for the guest supervisor’s specific needs at hand.
AFTER NARIP’S PITCH SESSION:
NARIP provides guest music supervisor with participant one-sheets and all music from NARIP’s Session, including notes detailing the guest music supervisor’s interest in specific tracks.
If requested by guest music supervisor, NARIP conveys additional tracks, remixes, instrumentals etc. to him.
If approved by guest music supervisor, NARIP provides his contact details to registrants.
DON’T GET LOST IN THE CROWD: SMALL IS THE NEW BIGNARIP Sessions are deliberately kept small and intimate, which is just one reason they work so well and why participants have enjoyed almost 2,000 placements to date. Limited enrollment of 16 people per session guarantees that registrants meet and get face-time with our guest.Almost 2,000 PLACEMENTS FROM NARIP MUSIC SUPERVISOR SESSIONS

Despite contraction in some sectors of our industry, there is healthy growth in others. NARIP is growing like a weed (and launching three chapters this year) because we create cutting-edge programming with movers and shakers to give you access to up-to-the-minute information and opportunity. Each NARIP chapter has its own character and needs. Come tell us what you’d like to see more of in Houston so we can create programming to meet your needs!
Here’s what people say about NARIP:
“This information (mobile distribution) is so valuable and timely. Very few, if any, are taking advantage of the mobile marketplace. In a few years, it will be household knowledge, like mp3s and digital downloads. Tapping into NARIP has allowed me get running before the whistle. I am now seeking mobile distribution and famous artist features for all of my artists, to give them a true competitive edge. And I know exactly where to start. Because not only did NARIP teach me ‘what’ and ‘how,’ but they brought me the ‘who.’ The very distributors who run this whole operation.” Nate “N8Beats” Rimmel, San Francisco, June 2009
You have an amazing knack for bringing the right tools together for success. I am very glad that I joined NARIP. – Patti Poole, Dragon Management, San Francisco, June 2009
“Top-notch and brilliantly executed.” – Music Connection Magazine, Los Angeles, December 2008
“Secrets of Online Music Marketing was one of the best programs I ever attended at NARIP and anywhere else for that matter. Kudos!” – Jack Rannells, music attorney,
New York, June 2009
“NARIP is the ultimate educational resource!” – Aleksander Urbaniak, Bleeding Denim LLC,
San Francisco, June 2009
“The NARIP programs I attend and purchase have been beyond my expectation. I hope that they keep going.” – Shawndale Grice, June 2009
So come along to meet existing friends and contacts, and make new ones. Our launch will feature 30-second introductions by all present to help you identify and get in front of the people who can make a difference to your business.
Among other things, NARIP sponsors events like these to encourage networking and the fostering of business relationships in the record industry. Over 75% of all great opportunities, deals and job offers come about as a direct result of second and third party referrals – who you know matters. So get to know more people in the record biz, and let them get to know you!

The National Association of Record Industry Professionals (NARIP) is delighted to announce the appointment of Barry Coffing to the position of Director, NARIP Houston.
“Texas has always been a hot bed for artistic and executive talent, and we see enormous opportunity there. I know of no better person than Barry Coffing to lead the charge for us in this gun-slinger state in a gun-slinger industry,” says NARIP President Tess Taylor. “He’s well-connected, highly creative and astute. We are thrilled to have him on board to grow NARIP in this important region.”
Mr. Coffing is CEO and Founder of MusicSupervisor.com and Uprising Entertainment. A 20-year industry veteran with major credits to his name, he is an Emmy-nominated composer and was signed to Warner Bros. Records in the 1990s. He has written hit songs that have charted around the world, including the #1 “I’ll Come Back To You.” He won Best Producer of the year at the Beverly Hills Film Festival in 2003, and has written and produced over 200 songs in film and TV including #1 hits and gold-selling soundtracks. He has worked with almost every major film company and television network. His knowledge of both sides of the licensing equation led him to create MusicSupervisor.com which has been used to find music for projects including Dexter, Ugly Betty, Burn Notice, Blonde Ambition, Lost, Love Kill, License to Wed, Swing Vote, Real Girl, Assassination of a High School President, Sexual Healing, Invincible, The Unit, Direct Contact and others. Barry has lectured on the music business at USC, Vanderbilt and The University of Houston.
With his professional relationships, especially at major film companies and TV networks on both coasts, and a strong background in the business as an executive and successful composer / artist, Mr. Coffing is uniquely positioned to help NARIP members identify opportunities in film and television, and to create and sustain long-term careers in the music business today.

Intimate Pitch Meetings with Top Music Supervisors
NARIP Pitch Sessions and all NARIP events will be online only for the foreseeable future using Zoom. Download a free copy at https://zoom.us to join this and future pitch sessions. Recommended: perform an audio and video test (built into the software) and/or with a friend. Headphones required.
A NARIP Series: Intimate Pitch Meetings with Top Music Buyers including Music Supervisors, A&R Executives, Synch Agents & Music Producers
Is your music getting to decision-makers?At NARIP’s intimate sessions, you get to meet music buyers including A&R executives, music supervisors, synch agents and music producers and pitch for current placement opportunities, representation, and projects, and get immediate feedback.BACKGROUNDSince 2011, NARIP Music Supervisor Pitch Sessions have secured over 2,000 placements in blockbuster films, hit television series, global promotion and advertising campaigns, and major studio trailers for NARIP members. Since inception of NARIP’s Synch Agent Pitch Sessions in 2018, thirty (30) NARIP members have signed representation or music publishing deals as a direct result with more in the works now. Other outcomes include collaborations, co-writing, producing and commissioned work.Topics at this NARIP Advertising Music Supervisor Pitch Session:
Meet top games music supervisor Sergio Pimentel who places music in games
Pitch songs directly to Sergio for his priority & upcoming projects
He seeks new and untapped talent to elevate projects he works on, including several new (unannounced) game projects
Learn how to get placed directly from the buyer, hear what works and what doesn’t
Direct access + firsthand info = better results FOR YOU
Small, focused NARIP Sessions enable one-on-one time and immediate direct feedback to music presented by participants. At NARIP Pitch Sessions, limited to 16 people, you get to know the guest music supervisor, synch agent or producer, and they to get to know you. NOTE: Out session with Jordan Silverberg will be 2 hours only (most NARIP Pitch Sessions are 3 hours), therefore we will limit enrollment to fewer participants.
Most important, attendees meet these key players, paving the way for placement, representation, collaboration and ongoing opportunities, and giving them an edge in a competitive market.
WHAT TO EXPECT AT A NARIP MUSIC SUPERVISOR PITCH SESSIONPREPARATION IS KEY
NARIP Music Supervisor Sessions are limited to an enrollment of just 16 people. About one week prior to NARIP’s Session, all registrants will get a brief of the guest supervisor’s then-CURRENT music needs. Each registrant will have a chance to pitch in response to the music briefs provided and get immediate feedback to music pitched. Each participant must submit 5 songs (MP3s only please) 36 hours prior to NARIP’s Music Supervisor Session. Please note that due to time constraints you will only be able to pitch your TOP 3 songs for consideration and immediate feedback (more, if time permits). This process takes the mystery out of why a piece of music does or doesn’t fit. On-the-spot feedback enables registrants to re-work tracks and re-submit, which creates a much higher probability to get them licensed (choose well!).
If you do not have music that matches the current needs of the supervisor, fear not! You can still attend and present the top three songs in your catalog. Make sure the songs are unique and captivating. This is helpful because a music supervisor’s needs change constantly. To optimize impact of music you pitch at NARIP’s Music Supervisor Session, we highly recommend that you target the briefs. Good luck and see you there!
BEFORE NARIP’S PITCH SESSION:
NARIP prepares a one-sheet for each participant including your photo and bio for the guest music supervisor to use and review at the event, and to take with him after the event. We will request your photo and bio one week prior to the event. In preparing these materials, we recommend you focus on brief career highlights in your bio and have a professional photo available.
Approximately 5 to 7 days prior to NARIP’s Session, you will be sent a project brief describing several cues needed for a current project(s) of our guest speaker. These often include reference songs or links so that you can hear exactly what he seeks or needs to replace.
You will submit your tracks with writer, publisher and other rights holder information that will also be supplied to the music supervisor during and after NARIP’s Session.

Since inception of NARIP’s Synch Agent Pitch Sessions in 2018, thirty (30) NARIP members have signed representation or music publishing deals as a direct result with more in the works now. Other outcomes include collaborations, co-writing, producing and commissioned work.Topics at this NARIP Advertising Music Supervisor Pitch Session:
Meet top film TV music supervisor Lindsay Wolfington who places music in popular episodic television shows and blockbuster filmes
Pitch songs directly to Lindsay for her priority & upcoming projects
Lindsay looks for new and untapped talent to elevate shows she works on
Learn how to get placed directly from the buyer, hear what works and what doesn’t
Direct access + firsthand info = better results FOR YOU
Small, focused NARIP Sessions enable one-on-one time and immediate direct feedback to music presented by participants. At NARIP Pitch Sessions, limited to 16 people, you get to know the guest music supervisor, synch agent or producer, and they to get to know you. Most important, attendees meet these key players, paving the way for placement, representation, collaboration and ongoing opportunities, and giving them an edge in a competitive market.
WHAT TO EXPECT AT A NARIP MUSIC SUPERVISOR PITCH SESSIONPREPARATION IS KEY
NARIP Music Supervisor Sessions are limited to an enrollment of just 16 people. About one week prior to NARIP’s Session, all registrants will get a brief of the guest supervisor’s then-CURRENT music needs. Each registrant will have a chance to pitch in response to the music briefs provided and get immediate feedback to music pitched. Each participant must submit five (5) songs (MP3s only please) 36 hours prior to NARIP’s Music Supervisor Session. Please note that due to time constraints you will only be able to pitch your TOP 3 songs for consideration and immediate feedback (more, if time permits). This process takes the mystery out of why a piece of music does or doesn’t fit. On-the-spot feedback enables registrants to re-work tracks and re-submit, which creates a much higher probability to get them licensed (choose well!).
If you do not have music that matches the current needs of the supervisor, fear not! You can still attend and present the top three songs in your catalog. Make sure the songs are unique and captivating. This is helpful because a music supervisor’s needs change constantly. To optimize impact of music you pitch at NARIP’s Music Supervisor Session, we highly recommend that you target the briefs. Good luck and see you there!
BEFORE NARIP’S PITCH SESSION:
NARIP prepares a one-sheet for each participant including your photo and bio for the guest music supervisor to use and review at the event, and to take with him after the event. We will request your photo and bio one week prior to the event. In preparing these materials, we recommend you focus on brief career highlights in your bio and have a professional photo available.
Approximately 5 to 7 days prior to NARIP’s Session, you will be sent a project brief describing several cues needed for a current project(s) of our guest speaker. These often include reference songs or links so that you can hear exactly what he seeks or needs to replace.
You will submit your tracks with writer, publisher and other rights holder information that will also be supplied to the music supervisor during and after NARIP’s Session.
You will get submission and meta-tagging guidelines, and mentoring as to how best to prepare your music for submission.
DURING NARIP’S PITCH SESSION:
You will get to play at least three songs (sometimes more, if time permits) for the guest music supervisor who will provide feedback to you for each one.
