Description
This book represents the day by day, town by town, shared experiences of the Canadian Indie musician: the adventures and the perils, the places stayed, people encountered, bad food eaten, driving from one end of this sparse country to the other, all the while knowing every other band has stopped in these same places. Turn Right, Turn Left, Repeat details how you can find success in the Canadian music industry in three easy steps:1. Start a band2. Get in the van and turn right or turn left3. Repeat.The book follows a complete tour through Canada by the United Steelworkers of Montreal. The book looks at how the Canadian music industry pastes itself across the map with insight into the workings of the gigs, venues, booking agents which is the shared experience of most bands.
