2012 Gift Guide: The Craft and Business of Songwriting by John Braheny

 

The Craft and Business of Songwriting by John Braheny

Especially for those of you contemplating a career in the music business.

The highly successful music industry book, The Craft and Business of Songwriting by my good friend, John Braheny  is in its 3rd edition. This edition contains a substantial amount of new content, including a podcasting sidebar written by yours truly.

I was honored when he asked me to write the podcasting sidebar for his book. As he prepared this latest edition, podcasting was just starting to enter the public psyche and, even then, I sensed its effects on songwriters and the music industry as a whole were sure to be profound. Since I was an experienced computer consultant, there at the very beginning, (and not a bad amateur guitarist) I was in excellent position to help his readers understand this new technology.
