I LIVE Music and the Music Business! My "Work includes Consulting, Guidance, Educating, Writing & Providing Courses, Management Services, and Writing & Negotiating Contracts. Songwriting & Producing to keep insane :)
I love helping those who want to learn about, or who are, or want to be Singers, Musicians, Groups, Bands, Managers, Songwriters, Publishers, Producers, Production Companies, and/or Indie Record Companies, no matter what stage of their careers, no matter what style of Music...
Music
I started out as a Rock Singer/ Songwriter/Guitarist and I'm basically into Great Rock 'n Roll, but I like most types...
I look for Great Songs put out by Great Artists/Bands. It's gotta come from the Heart!!!
I hate most of the "safe acts" [borrrring] put out by the "Majors"... It's time they caught up with the world!
I love a lot of the unsigned acts out there - better than a lot of stuff I normally hear on commercial stations.
Movies
Sci-Fi and Martial Arts, Fantasy. Especially love 3D I-Max stuff...
Television
Rarely watch, but I like Sci-fi, 24, NCIS [good characters], and yeah, even the Phillies - they're fun to watch to clear my brain out between contracts :)
Books
Sci-Fi! Yeah, I love Star Trek - especially "the Next Generation"
Heroes
Those in the Music Industry who give it all they've got and never give up...
The title says it all: The Steps Artists, Managers, Producers and others interested in a Music Business Career should seriously give some thought to, before they start on the road upward...
It seems most everyone in the Music Industry knows me as "Professor Pooch" - so I guess that's who I am :). I was a Recording Artist waaay back [Rock Singer/Songwriter] but I've been guiding Music Biz Careers for the last 25 years as a Consultant, Educator, Advisor & Contract Specialist.
I help guide the careers of present and future Singers, Songwriters, Bands, Managers, Music Publishers, and Producers, as well as guiding Production Companies and Indie Labels. I take care of all their contractual needs, also, including writing, explaining and negotiating them.
Although I'm based in the Philly area, I have clients throughout the United States. I can help you on the Creative, Business and Legal ends, and I'll be happy to answer questions on the biz for free, right here on MySpace...
