About

Less than one percent of all musicians reach megastar-level fame.

For the rest of us, a successful music career involves playing in bars, clubs, hotels, corporate gigs, cruise ships, and wedding venues. That career can be just as fulfilling and meaningful-if you're willing to work on the fundamentals.

Gig for Life will teach you those fundamentals. Georges Elchakieh shares his system for every aspect of creating and running a successful business as a musician-and yes, it is a business, and you must treat it as such. His insights will help you master your interpersonal relationships with yourself, your bandmates, venue managers, and your audience in order to build a successful career in music.

If you want to be the next Top 40 superstar, this book is not for you. However, if you want to enjoy playing music for the rest of your life, Gig for Life is a necessity.
