The Internet is an incredible promotional tool for musicians. You can get radio play, grow a fan base, create a distribution channel and sell CDs and music downloads all online. Imagine how much music you'd sell if *thousands* of people heard your music every day? Most musicians, however, have no idea where to begin when it comes to online promotion. Some get as far as putting up a web site, but stop there. That's where this book will help. David Nevue, an independent musician like yourself, uses the Internet to generate well over $70,000 a year in music-related sales. Today, David is doing the "music biz" full-time, having quit his "day job" in 2001 after making more money selling music online than working for a corporation! In this book, David will take you step by step through the same marketing strategies he's used since 1995 to promote his music successfully on the Internet. Now you too can build your own music career using the Internet -in your own time and on your own terms.

In 2003, he founded Whisperings: Solo Piano Radio (www.solopianoradio.com), a hugely popular Internet radio broadcast that he uses as a vehicle to further promote his own particular genre of piano music.

Not that long ago, it was commonly believed that you pretty much had to have a record deal with a major label in order to get exposure for your music. The Internet, however, has shifted that paradigm and the playing field is considerably more level, enabling independent musicians to promote themselves in ways that were inconceivable in the past. That said - how does one go about doing it? It's not as simple as it sounds, and there are a myriad of possibilities, not to mention pitfalls, as well. Having read a fair amount on this topic over the past few years, I'd have to say that David's book is about the best map I have come across for helping to navigate the complex currents of online promotion in the music business.
The book is literally packed full of information and resources based on a proven track record, without any hype, theoretical ideas, or get rich quick schemes. It's the real thing. According to David, "I've lived this book! Everything in it, every idea, suggestion, and strategy within its pages comes from my own life experience." I am genuinely impressed by the wealth of information this book offers and am looking forward to putting it to work in my own marketing. Part of the reason for the success of this book is that it is extremely user-friendly, well written, and easy to understand. My only wish is that I had been aware of it a few years ago. But I'm glad I found it now and am happy to give this book my highest recommendation.
