November 2010

G'day peaceful warriors,

gilli moon here. It's been such a wild ride this Fall in L.A and as we head into Thanksgiving here, I want to take a moment to thank everyone who has supported my music and book releases.

OK, What's in this issue?

I have released my 2nd book, JUST GET OUT THERE, and am very excited for it to get into the hands and minds of Artists around the world, to help with their journey to become Artist Entrepreneurs. Full details below.

Upcoming: an interview on Monday that y'all can log on to the Internet to tune in; A fabulous Holiday Party for Songsalive! at The Mint, Los Angeles on Tues Dec 14; a downtown Holiday gig with my rockin' band on Wed Dec 22; and a big announcement that we just got selected for the NAMM Conference to perform center stage at the Hilton on Saturday Jan 15, 2011, our first gig for the new year. What a coup! All details below.

Finally, I have a new video to showcase, my VPK (which is a video press kit). It tells all about the album and gives you some inside goss about who I am, surrounded by my home in L.A. Check it out on my home page www.gillimoon.com.

Take the ride with me and read on with my monthly newsletter.

Latest blog: I have come to realize that we, as human beings, want two things: love, and a purpose. We want to know that we are loved and that our love will be received, and that we have some kind of path for us in this world; some kind of purpose or plan. We want to know where we are going and even better, how to get there. Artists are divinely creative and unique human beings. We have the innate ability to be the eye to our souls, and shine a light on the deepest secrets we often keep to ourselves, illuminating them so we can grow, and be better human beings, hopefully, for ourselves and to those around us. Artists are like voyeurs, with a gift to see into the souls of our common human experiences and deliver to us, through their Art, a reflection on a silver platter. We hear our own heart ache through songwriters’ songs; we see our pain on the canvas, and we feel our joy through the dancer’s flight... READ ON http://gillidiary.blogspot.com

JUST GET OUT THERE
Achieving Abundance, Self-Empowerment and Professional Success

November 4, 2010 - Hollywood, CA – Award-winning Australian singer/songwriter, producer, and global artist community builder, GILLI MOON (pronounced as with a "J"), is proud to announce the release of the ultimate motivational handbook for Artists, JUST GET OUT THERE - Achieving Abundance, Self-Empowerment and Professional Success as an Artist Entrepreneur (ISBN: 978-0-9579906-1-6, Release date: November 4, 2010). At 330 pages, JUST GET OUT THERE is the Artist entrepreneur’s bible to achieving financial independence and abundance, self-empowerment, and enjoying the journey to creative and professional success while making a great living along the way. JUST GET OUT THERE is the follow-up to MOON’s first book released in 2007, I AM A Professional Artist - The Key to Survival and Success in the World of the Arts. (ISBN 978-0-9579906-0-9).

GILLI MOON is an unprecedented DIY Indie Music success, role model, educator and inspiration for thousands of recording artists. She is a self made brand. Artist, songwriter, entrepreneur, expressionist, her willingness and pleasure in providing her unparalleled insight and knowledge of the music industry to help other musicians navigate and find success for their own art is, indeed, a rare commodity.

JUST GET OUT THERE covers topics such as defining your uniqueness; building your dream and creating a plan around your goals; balancing the art with the 'business' through time management and prioritization techniques; fundamentals in producing, releasing, marketing, promotion, performing and touring; using the Internet; and a plethora of in-depth tips, tools, steps and resources on getting out there as an Artist. Throughout JUST GET OUT THERE, gilli guides, asks questions, and provides exercises, making you think and act the way a strong business savvy Artist should, leading you to the Artist you ultimately are destined to become.

JUST GET OUT THERE provides inspiration, hope and assurance through anecdotal stories – many first hand experiences from gilli’s life - motivational messages and real, practical, tried and tested strategies.

What would happen if you just took a leap of faith in your Artistry and just got out there? Are you ready to take risks in order to achieve your dreams? Are you ready to build a plan for yourself? Are you ready to see your dreams come true?

We live in a time where entrepreneurial excellence is paramount.
It's time for Artists to take control of their own destiny...

WHAT THEY SAY

Word after word, line after line, paragraph after paragraph. Your words regarding the music industry spoke the truth. JUST GET OUT THERE is the blueprint to this industry. And it goes further. To the essence of one's own life. Every Artist. In fact every human no matter from what walk of life can learn from this.
- 5 Star Productions

So, you wanna be a big rock star? Read Just Get Out There by Gilli Moon! JUST GET OUT THERE shows you, step by step, how to navigate the complexities of a music industry that has undergone an unprecedented revolution brought on by the Internet and the Information Age. Opportunities for the independent artist have never been better and as the “warrior girl", Moon was out there in the trenches as an “Indie" long before that term became popular. But what is far more important is that Gilli Moon teaches us a lesson even more valuable than all the fame and fortune, and that is how to achieve a creative lifetime of happiness and self-fulfillment by learning to define success on your own terms. JUST GET OUT THERE should be read not only by those yearning for artistic achievement, but by ANYONE who wishes to live life at its fullest potential.
- Anders R. Jermstad, independent editor and musician

Gilli Moon's advice and no-nonsense philosophy applies just as well to anyone who wants to live their dream, whatever it may be. Her common-sense approach is packed with tips that provide a blueprint for success. In each chapter, Ms. Moon gives the reader encouragement, as well as practical suggestions that break down into small steps exactly what it takes to make it in the Arts and entertainment. She guides us through mind sets that can turn into obstacles and presents the type of attitudes that can achieve goals. Most enlightening is her perspective that each person can become their own industry and actually profit from their dream. Her attention to detail merges Art with commerce in a way that transforms pipe dreams into reality. Simple to understand and uplifting to read, this book is a must for anyone who wants to live a fulfilling and rewarding life while pursuing their muse.
- Music Connection

Gilli’s motivational book is based on her life and her growing as a human being, as an artist, and also as a businesswoman who wants to succeed so that she can give back to others. Her book is written simply and with practical, every day ideas, which should be used by each and every one of us. She talks to you as a good friend, who is honest with you and gives you some hard questions… ‘Emotional soul food’ that many times is needed on our bookshelves, so that we can always come back and get the needed energy from every single word that Gilli Moon is offering us from her own experience as a Professional Artist who found her identity and didn’t lose it.

Artist, songwriter, entrepreneur, expressionist, her willingness and pleasure in providing her unparalleled insight and knowledge of the music industry to help other musicians navigate and find success for their own art is, indeed, a rare commodity.

Australia’s Hollywood based GILLI MOON is an Artist, Author, Motivational Speaker and Artist Entrepreneur, with a ceaseless contribution to the creative and business communities at large. She is constantly creating projects for her own music and arts passions, as well as for others.

Billboard, who states she “beat the odds,” at making it in the music industry after emigrating from the Australian wilderness to Los Angeles, and who Artists for a Better World called “a female Elton John,” GILLI MOON is not only a unique, evocative and energetic chanteuse with six CD releases to her name, but she also has become a beacon for artists worldwide, inspired and motivated by her story and her creativity.

First and foremost, Gilli Moon is an illustrious, energetic poly-media Artist and songwriter, with multifaceted albums and dynamic live shows that have touched music lovers worldwide garnering high praise from the most jaded of critics. Her restless creativity and rebellious nature continually urge the artist to push the envelope when writing a song, recording in the studio, on stage, in business and with whatever she touches. For the past 10 years she has been one of Australia's most influential and iconic Artists, forging an independent path before anyone knew what "indie" was. Gilli has produced and released 6 studio music albums of her original music, to critical acclaim, released written hundreds of songs, winning songwriting and artist awards and licensed to film and television shows, and has performed around the world many times.

Gilli has received numerous press for her courage, power and dynamic energy as an artist and inspiration for other artists, and has worked with other highly respected prominent artists including Simple Minds, Placido Domingo and Eric Idle (Monty Python). Recently she was interviewed on Australia’s 60 Minutes and in the International Newsweek magazine as a pioneer and leader in the independent music business; been featured alongside Aimee Mann in discussing their mutual success in the indie music scene in Music Connection Magazine; and has had music at No. 1 on many internet and traditional radio stations.

( www.warriorgirlmusic.com) Warrior Girl Music also has a strong arm for Artist Development and Professional Coaching, (Warrior Artist Coaching) which Gilli sees as an integral need to "fill the gap where many Major Record labels no longer provide for Artists who need development and production." (www.warriorartistcoaching.com)

She is constantly invited to speak at various music conferences and workshops around the world about her story as an independent Artist, and she provides tips and tools on how Music Artists can create success in their own careers. She also delivers workshops for Actors, Dancers, and any individual interested in pursuing the Arts as a profession. Her two most successful workshops are “The Path to Artist Empowerment”, and “The Successful Artist Entrepreneur”, both of which are highly requested by many International Music Conferences, as well as conducting them at her own Artist Workshops, called “Artistalive!” also a Resource site for Artists. (www.artistalive.com)
