New Blog Comes Online Covering Band Financial Advice

"Don’t Forget The Business In The Music Business" author Antonio Ponce has posted a new blog on the financial responsibilities that goes with being in a band and working out your budgets. Ponce comments:

"The last thing you want to happen is to get a big break and not be able to act on it due to a lack of funds. Opportunities only come every so often and you need to be ready to pounce when they do. Being in a band means you are part of a team. However, some things need to be taken care of at the individual level first."

Entitled "Band Budget - Tips On How To Keep Money In The Bank For Band Expenses," the blog mentions tips to get your financials organized for future development, just one of many topics discussed by Ponce in his new book. Check out the full blog entry here.

Ponce's debut book "Don’t Forget The Business In The Music Business" aims to enable up-and-coming bands to ascend the ladder of success, based on his band's experience from playing his first show to six months later being invited to play a festival in Tokyo, Japan. He explains:

“I would have loved to have this information when our band started. There were so many unanswered questions that took years of searching and experience to learn. If this book had existed back then, we could have leaped over the fire instead of trying to walk through it! I know a lot of new and current bands stuck on the ‘what to do next?’ question will find value in the book’s contents. I hope this book is a tool musicians can use to help them get into a position to get to the next level and notice what we were able to do as an unknown band and that they can do it too!”
