When JWT/NY began to put together the concept for the groundbreaking DISCOVER AMERICA Campaign to promote tourism to the USA, the musical idea was to license and rerecord an iconic song which sang the praises of the country without all the inherent chest beating and jingoism. The performer would also be iconic. Someone whose presence embodied the “American Spirit”.nn
nnAs a major recording artist in her own right and a prominent member of one of America’s most influential musical families, Rosanne Cash was JWT’s choice as performer. The only problem was that they had no song. Of the very few available possibilities, nothing completely met JWT’s criteria. nnNYC based music house NY Noise had already been tapped by JWT’s Director of Music, Paul Greco, to produce the project. Greco knew the NYN / Rosanne Cash creative relationship to be a long and successful one. Among the many projects they’ve collaborated on, NYN‘s CD Rick DePofi co-produced Rosanne’s critically acclaimed album, The List (EMI), along with Rosanne’s husband (and NYN writer / producer) John Leventhal. nnJWT’s solution was for Rosanne and John to write an original song: a musical invitation for the world to visit this amazing country. Land of Dreams was the result. Working directly with JWT’s team which included ECDs Bill Oberlander, Jim Hord, Dave O’Hare, John Doyle and Director of Brand Production Matt Anderson as well as @Radical Media director Dave Meyers, NYN‘s DePofi and Leventhal produced an Americana infused song that evolved from a supporting role to becoming the very essence of the Brand USA “DISCOVER AMERICA“campaign. nn”Land of Dreams” is available for free download at www.DiscoverAmerica.com.nnCreditsnClient: Brand USA CTPnCampaign: Discover AmericannAgency: JWT/NYnExec CD: Bill OberlandernExec CD: Jim HordnExec CD / AD John DoylenExec CD / CW: Dave O’HarenDirector of Brand Production: Matt AndersonnDirector of Music: Paul GreconGlobal Business Director: Megan KentnBusiness Director: Sean McCarthynSr Producer: Kimberly EdwardsnnProduction Company: @ Radical MedianDirector: Dave MeyersnExec Producer: Jim BouvetnProducer: Scott CunninghamnDirector of Photography: Danny HielenProduction Supervisor: Angie RevellnnEditorial: The White HousenExec Producer: Lauren HertzbergnProducer: Alejandra AlarconnEditors: Trish Fuller, Jen DeannnMusic House: NY NoisenExec Producer: Craig BishopnProducers: Rick DePofi, John LeventhalnMusic Mixer: Rick DePofinOriginal Composition: Land of DreamsnSongwriters: Rosanne Cash & John LeventhalnRecording Artists: Rosanne Cash w/ Bebel Gilberto, David Hidalgo, Treme Brass BandnnAudio Post: Sound LoungenMixer: Tom JucaronennAbout Brand USAnBrand USA was established by the Travel Promotion Act in 2010 to spearhead the nation’s first global marketing effort to promote the United States as a premier travel destination and communicate U.S. entry/exit policies and procedures.
