The Artist's Guide to Success in the Music Business is a detailed analysis of the subjects that all musicians should understand and apply in order to pursue a successful and sustainable career in music. Full of ideas and practical advice, this book provides comprehensive detail on how to optimize success and achieve sustainability and self-empowerment in today's music business. From production and performance to marketing and career-building, this book instructs artists on how to take the hard-earned lessons of a fellow musician and put them to work in their own careers.

This is the first edition, released 16 April 2010. The cover reads Volume 1 and carries the lines The Best Moves for the Roughest Odds and Empowering methods and practical applications from a vetted music professional.
