I was honored that Ray Ricker asked me to be a contributing author for the 2nd edition of his book, Lessons from A Streetwise Professor: What You Won't Learn at Most Music Schools. For the past several months, Ray and I have worked closely, writing new sections for the book and updating existing content. It's a great book loaded with practical information to help young musicians as they embark on their music careers. (Check out the 1st edition here) The 2nd edition will be available later this summer, so stay tuned!
