The Useful Musician: 101 Ways To Improve Your Playing And Get Asked Back - Paperback

by Ed Schief (Author)

What makes a musician valuable? What does the band, the audience, the song itself need from you? For 50 years I've played in churches, clubs, and recording studios, written arrangements for stage ensembles, played in theater-style shows and lugged a lot of equipment around-all in the West Michigan area. This book is a distillation of things I've learned over the years, things that work, things I do every time I play, things I see less experienced players miss or get wrong.If you play in a church band, a cover band, or any participate in any way in your local music scene, this book is for you.
