All You Need to Know About the Music Business
I just finished reading “All You need to Know About the Music Business“. It was a real insight to how nasty the music industry can be. Donald Passman really did a nice job on this book, making boring subjects entertaining. In the book he goes over:
- Managers and all of the people you might someday be working with
- Record deals and all the confusing numbers that go with the music business
- Songwriting and copyright
- Group issues
- Touring
- Merchandising
- and more…
I really like having this book lying around because when I don’t feel like playing I can pick it up and still learn something music related. This is a very valuable resource for anyone interested in someday becoming a professional musician.
