Making and Marketing Music: The Musician's Guide to Financing, Distributing, and Promoting Albums

Great, great great! That just sums all there is to be said about this book. With a step by step structure and structured reading this book takes you through the steps of recording, getting the album into the stores, booking concerts and managing the finances. Good title for managers and musicians alike, but songwriters and producers will love it too because ti opens up lots of closed doors and gives a lot of unseen information. Recommended for novices and experienced people alike, do not miss.

Ms. Summers demonstrates a unique understanding of the inner-workings of the music industry. Her insights are often pithy, helpful and even humorous. This tome should be assigned reading for anyone wishing to make a career within the oft-confusing walls of the contemporary music world.

It's obvious why Billboard Magazine gave Making and Marketing Music such a great review. It's full of interesting stories on how so many different platinum bands from so many areas of music succeeded.If you're looking for step-by-step instruction on how to market and promote your album - this book is incredibly helpful!

I just finished reading your books ("The Interactive Music Handbook" and "Making and Marketing Music") Congratulations. They are great!
