Are you a musician in a band, or working towards being one? Are you wondering how you can turn all that hard work into hard cash?

There are literally millions of amateur and semi-professional musicians around the world, many of whom think that for them, making money from their music is out of reach. It’s just a distant dream. However, if you’re good enough to play in public, you’re good enough to be PAID to play in public. Despite the global economy making life difficult (especially for those determined souls playing their own material), the reality is that there is still a vibrant and enthusiastic market for bands playing covers. It’s also a marketplace with some significant growth areas which are very rewarding for cover bands, probably the ONLY musical environment which is enjoying solid growth in 2018.

This is a truly comprehensive course, which will guide you all the way from recruiting your first bandmates (if that’s what you need) to performing professionally, with a busy and well-organised career. Along the way, you’ll find upbeat, engaging lectures on all the subjects you would expect, plus a lot more besides. There is a huge amount of material here, but I’ve deliberately kept everything as light and easily-absorbed as possible. I’ve also used some of my favourites anecdotes and ‘Tales from the Road’ to help put things in perspective for you, and hopefully raise a smile.

Here’s a snapshot of some of the topics you’ll be covering on the course;

• Getting it all off the ground, from scratch.
• Addressing the age-old question; Old band or new?
