Reviews for How To Make It in the New Music Business: Practical Tips on Building a Loyal Following and Making a Living as a Musician

"""There is a great divide between what the young musician thinks being a rock star is and what actually working as a musician entails. Ari fills in the blanks with his light-hearted yet blunt demeanour. He's the informed older brother most of us never got in this crazy, confusing industry."" -- Andy Grammer, chart-topping singer/songwriter ""It's a fun and informative read for every artist out there looking to live off their creative craft. The book does a great job of explaining the process of generating royalties and crowdfunding goals, all while delivering important info in a witty and wise tone that’s comprehensive but never condescending."" -- Joshua Kanter - Rolling Stone ""An indispensable and comprehensive manual on how to navigate the modern music business."" -- Forbes ""The best ‘how to’ book of its kind. As a working artist himself, Herstand knows of what he speaks.... The book crackles with the actual experience of being a working artist. Highly recommended."" -- Music Connection"
