Managing Your Band

Garage Bands

When they first begin to jam and develop a unique style and sound, few young garage band players are thinking of music as a business. Little do they realize what will be involved if they pursue professional music careers. This insightful volume provides readers with valuable information about managing a band: what to look for in a band manager or management team, getting gigs, controlling a band's sound, and much more. Readers will learn through clear, age-appropriate text, about legal matters, such as a band members' agreement, manager's contract, lawyer fees, security and insurance issues, and ways to protect a band's name and music.
