I had the opportunity to provide a little commentary to another recording-studios-facing-threat-of-home-recording themed article published today by the Courier News, kind of similar to the recording studio article last week.
My new hero is John Forrestal, a 19-year (old also quoted in the article) whose home recording studio became a small business while he was still in high school. He records jazz artists, singer-songwriters, etc. (I think I was still collecting comic books in 9th or 10th grade. Fortunately, I also started playing guitar around that time.) John’s way ahead of his time, but then so is the entire Apple GarageBand generation, I guess.
It’s great to be a songwriter in the 21st century.
