Backstreet Boy To Help Launch Music Wannabes

Business partners Keith McGuffey and Backstreet Boys star Kevin Richardson will open The Music Workshop on August 1st in Louisville, where they will help fledgling music acts get off the ground. “Our target audience is anyone in this state and surrounding states who is interested in the music industry,” Richardson told The Courier-Journal. “You’ll learn everything from how to make a demo, to how to shop a demo, to how to read a contract, to how to negotiate a contract, to what music publishing is, what production companies are, what points are – all the business-side things that a young artist can get lost in.”
