Huey Lewis: When You Bring On A New Band Member
Huey of Huey Lewis & The News (clients): When you have to bring on a new member of a band, you don't necessarily want the guy or girl who auditions the best. You want the guy who is going to eventually be the best.
Let's face it, rock and roll is not brain surgery. Most people can learn the music.
But you want somebody who really cares about it and is going to improve all the time.
There are session musicians who can come in and play. They can get 90% of it on the first take, but that might be all they're going to get because they maybe don't care enough. Maybe they're bored with it after a while.
You want somebody who might only audition at 70%, but he's going to get to 100%. It's a tough thing to judge, but that's what you're looking for.
I help professional musicians tell their stories.
