THE Updated SINGER/SONGWRITER RULE BOOK: 101 Ways To Help You Improve Your Chances Of Success

By Larry Butler

For Singer/Songwriters, it's all about the live show. Everything else that you want in today's music business is dependent on you having a great live show - not just good or even very good - but GREAT! This book is mainly addressed to the solo singer/songwriter because in these rough economic times in the music business, one of the best ways to make a living is to be a self-contained singer/songwriter who owns the melody, the lyrics, the voice, the song arrangement, and the recording master. The only thing that has changed in the music business is the loss of the major income stream from record sales and the manner in which the audience is receiving and consuming recorded music. But as far as singer/songwriters and live performances are concerned, HOW TO ENTERTAIN AN AUDIENCE HAS NOT CHANGED. The audience still wants to be entertained no matter how well or badly the record business is doing. This book is a step-by-step instruction as to how to get started and why you may need to go back and start over on some things. Sample section headings include Personal, Musical, Songwriting, Recording, Visual & Style, Staging & Performance, Professional, Touring, Merchandising, Social Media, YouTube, TV/Film/Ads, and Solutions. Bottom line: It's not about who has the most talent; it's about who wants it more and will work harder to get it - the real secrets to success.
