This book just might be your golden ticket to success. -- Kathie Lee Gifford, Co-Host of the 4th hour of the Today Show with Hoda Kotb Mark Cabaniss has managed something extraordinary-the creation of a book about the music business that any artist can understand and actually use. Though the book is impressively comprehensive, beautifully organized and filled with vital, true data, the author has a purpose to inspire and genuinely wants his reader to succeed. This is no coincidence since aside from his being a great communicator and teacher, Mark is also a noted songwriter, publisher, playwright and producer in his own right. This work is more definitive than most because its author is smart, literate and has walked the walk. Thank you, Mark, for this extraordinary gift to all of your fellow artists. -- David Pomeranz, Multi Platinum Award-Winning Recording Artist and Songwriter Mark Cabaniss has created the definitive guide to today's complex and challenging music business, written with all of Mark's renowned expertise, warmth and wit.
