Another solid interview; but this time on the fringe of Comedy as I interview Musician/Producer/Author Dick Bright. From his stories about music of Ella Fitzgerald, BB King, Joel Grey, & Huey Lewis to his comedy connection with Jack Gallagher, Bruce Baum, and Robin Williams; Dick has worked with the best! He also started the "Bammies" in the Bay Area, and acted in the movie "Mrs Doubtfire". His new Book "Work'n For A Livin" is out and a solid guide for musicians of all ages.
Dick Bright, a world-class violinist and music producer, has a music career deeply entrenched in his family background, as he learned his craft from his father, a music teacher. Dick's perception of his career in music is one filled with enjoyment, meaningful relationships, and life-changing experiences such as introducing Huey Lewis to Ella Fitzgerald. He maintains that working in the music industry should be not just profitable but also pleasurable and fulfilling. His background and experiences, including co-leading a rock band and co-creating a music award show, have led him to value the importance of a supportive and positive environment in the music industry. Through his book, "Working for a Living: How to Make It in the Music Business," he passes on these beliefs to aspiring musicians, emphasizing the significance of fun and decent earnings in pursuing a music career.
