I have been working in the music business for years and doing daily research, and have written around 200 blogs. I'm very fortunate to have and opportunity to write a book. The music business/ The Ugly truth. Here is an unedited version of the forward. I'm on chapter 9,The book should be coming out around the first of the year.
Forward
Entering
the music business fun, fact, fiction, or all of the above? After 25 plus years
in the music industry, I have found that it’s a mixed bag of the good, the bad,
and the ugly. From the outside looking in, it appears to be all glamour and
excitement. Sorry to disappoint you, but that misconception and a box of
sparklers will get you a nice refrigerator box under the bridge.
My
goal with this book is to show you the truth of what the music business is
really all about. There is a lot of information out there from the academia
perspective. That’s good, however most of that information belongs right where
it sits; in a book. The real world of the music industry can only be learned
through experience. And that’s exactly how we plan on translating this
information to you.
In this book I am drawing from over 20+ years of
personal experience in the industry, as well as from other seasoned
professionals I have met along the way. The information you will be getting
comes from Grammy award winning, Dove award winning, Stellar award winners, as
well as others whom have achieved high levels of success and notoriety in this
industry.
Our goal is to provide you with accurate, up-to-date
information that will help you enter into this world without falling into all
the traps and costly experiences of being unprepared. Remember there are no short cuts. Miss a
step, trip and you will land hard.
I have
dedicated my life to this cause, and I hope you will get what you need from
this book to get you started and prepared for the exciting road ahead. Good
music to you.
