Here is a list of the websites that inspired me to start my own.  Some of them are jazz or guitar related and some aren’t.  

Please check them out and let them know if you like what they are doing.

Darcy James Argue – Darcy is a great composer based out of NYC.  He has a great blog that chronicles the struggles of keeping a contemporary big band together.  

Amanda Monaco – Amanda is a great guitar player and a great friend.  Although her blog is relatively new, I am sure big things are coming.

David LaMotte – David was quite a mentor to me while I was in college studying music business.  He is an independant musican who is doing what he loves and changing the world while doing it.  I spent several weeks in North Carolina working for him and I think without that experience, I wouldn’t be where I am today.

Seth Godin – Marketing Guru.  Well worth the read.

This is just the first round.  More to come soon.
