What people are saying
about Josh Sanderson...
"I enthusiastically recommend Josh's courses to my
songwriter friends at all levels as an expert who is clear, organized,
articulate, and fun to learn from".

ÒAs a seasoned musician, artist manager and licensing coordinator, I
believed there was little for me to learn about the music business. The course
not only provided me with an incredible amount of information that I had
forgotten, but Josh also covered an amazing variety of industry areas that I
had never considered. Within the space of 4 hours I felt that I had regained
all of the valuable information that I had lost, while also gaining valuable
new insight that Josh made wonderfully informative and simple to
understand. A great course and a
wonderful teacher – I highly recommend.
