I've become a better performer, a better songwriter and a better musician and person and I can't wait to spend a bunch more years working with Gilli |
Hear what Linda Bonadies says about what she gained from working with me:
|
"Gilli Moon helps you to develop a practical and comprehensive logistical plan to marketing your music. However her real power lies in delving into your attitudes, belief systems and ultimate dreams in life which will ultimately decide the success or failure of your efforts. While I am often overwhelmed by the obstacles of this business, each coaching session with Gilli renews my positive attitude and empowers me to continue to move forward. While many times I begin my coaching session feeling lost, Gilli makes it possible for me to find my sense of purpose again and feel the joy in the process of making and marketing my music. She provides an invaluable service to the independent artist. She understands the process, the challenges, and the attitudes one must have in order to thrive in this pursuit. She is a great sounding board and guide!" |
|
Gilli, I commend you for producing works that empower the individual. It's not just anyone who will take the time, invest the creative energy, and actually follow through on the plan for such an endeavour. I hope you take pride in what you have already accomplished. |

I've had honor of going through the Power Up program, and I can tell you that I have never seen a program that is going to take you, the creative person that you are, and show you how to get your art, your music, your writing, your performance, out of your living room and onto the world stage, where you can actually have a career doing what you love, and the best part of it all is it's not speculation. It's not theory. It's stuff that Gilli herself has done.

Everyone needs mentors on their journey...people who have walked the walk and are willing to share their treasures of experience and advice, and Gilli is that type of a mentor. She's a real competent and courageous leader, and you can get to know Gilli and what she's all about through the Power Up program, but I would really urge you to invest in yourself as an artist and hire her as a personal coach.

I've had the good fortune to work with Gilli Moon for a few years, and she has consistently been an inspiration. Not only as an artist herself with her creativity and her sheer willingness to get out there and do what needs to be done, but also in her role as a teacher, where she can guide and support and help lift you up as an artist to be the best artist you can be, and she's helped me to focus and to harness what exactly it is I want and how to go after it, and especially through her private coaching, and now in her Creative Warrior Power Up program.

This program really gave me a good kick, helped me reassess my thinking, and I’m already working more with music. I’ve put a few songs down. It’s really helped me move forward after being stuck for a couple years. So I really recommend the Creative Warrior Academy.

With the significant number of rejections you get, which is part of the business when you are creative, it’s very important that you’ve learned how to self-define in order to survive and succeed. The Power Up program will always be a great toolbox, going into the future.

"Thank you for all the wings you have added to my flight :)" |
"My life and art were out of control and Gilli intuitively tailored our sessions to help me move forward. Her strength and inspiration are amazing. She is an artist that takes care of business and that ain’t no lie. She knows what needs to be done and how to remain empowered while you are doing it. I look forward to working with Gilli again and I would work with Gilli anytime, in a heartbeat. Why suffer? It doesn’t get any better than this!" |

"Every time I come into contact with Gilli I walk away feeling on a completely different level than I was before: I feel like I can do anything." |
Gilli is the consummate artist’s coach. An artist herself, she understands the creative life and what it takes. But more than just an artist, Gilli is skilled at coaching other artists to help realize their vision. Gilli’s sessions are tailored to what you want to accomplish, and she has developed tools that help you focus and keep you on track while recognizing your accomplishments. Working with Gilli, I created a solid plan for releasing an EP of my songs, and I started performing again, after a two-year hiatus. Not only did I accomplish what I set out to accomplish, I feel I developed a genuine friendship in the process. I highly recommend Creative Warrior Coaching with Gilli Moon. |

Gilli's resources have helped me to develop my business foundation and create a business and marketing plan to grow it. She has a unique ability to listen and be able to hone in on where she can direct me to resources she has available.... Gilli is a master at Time Management.... She is a no-nonsense, hard working coach, who lives by her word and has proven her techniques successful. She is inspirational not only with how she has created and modeled her entrepreneurial business but also how she generously shares her information with others. I’ve been a coaching client of Gilli’s and she has a unique ability to listen and be able to hone in on where she can direct me to resources she has available. She is a wealth of information and literally has everything at her fingertips (a few key strokes away). Gilli has been a great support. I consider myself an entrepreneur working for myself and by myself, I think of her as my supervisor that I can go to for questions and feedback, which makes the task less overwhelming. |
Gilli has helped me in numerous ways to get focused, and start doing the activities that will help me achieve my musical goals. Her plan is a simple no-nonsense step by step approach for those wanting to do the "indie artist walk", at any level. I have been very fortunate to meet Gilli Moon. She has helped me in numerous ways to get focused, and start doing the activities that will help me achieve my musical goals. Her plan is a simple no-nonsense step by step approach for those wanting to do the "indie artist walk", at any level. I highly recommend her book, "Just Get Out There" for anyone, at any age, from the freshman to the seasoned road dog. Full of insight and honest perspective from someone who lives what she preaches. I would also recommend Gilli as an artist coach, she is an awesome warrior and has really shown me how to keep my feet to the fire, and just get out there! Thank you Gilli! |

I was completely overwhelmed with running my own business, and pretty unorganized when I first started working with Gilli.... She helped me to organize my thoughts, goals and direction, and to find out what my truth was... "what was success to me?" ... She inspires me to be my best, and to give myself the best chance to follow my dreams. I was my biggest road block. Gilli genuinely cares about me and about helping me follow my dreams; I'm sure she's the same way with all of her clients. Her energy, honesty, passion and heart are an inspiration to me. I'm truly grateful for her support and guidance in my life. |
Gilli is a renaissance woman - multitalented and notable for wearing many hats! She is first and foremost an artist, with a passion for music, melody and performance. She is also a producer and project manager with a talent for bringing out the best in others. I first worked with Gilli on the first Los Angeles Women's Music Festival - without her hard work and guidance it wouldn't have come to fruition! Gilli is a uniquely talented and driven person - as far as I can see, there's nothing she can't do and nothing she can't get done. |

Gilli is one of the most inspirational creative artists I have ever met. She has the rare ability to see the whole picture and to accomplish her goals, whether in business or in her non-profit efforts to mentor and nurture songwriters and composers. Gilli sets the bar high but she is also the most supportive and greatest colleague and friend that anyone could have. She is simply the best! |

Gilli not only runs a fabulous organization that offers exposure and career guidance to singer/songwriters and other emerging artists, but she is one of the most talented songwriters and dynamic performers in her own right. Combined that with the success of her Warrior Girl Music label and Females on Fire Compilation program, and you have one of the largest contributors to the advancement of women's careers in music as well. (She) has to be one of the most organized professionals in the music biz with the work load she supports.

Gilli is more than a talented artist, she is a premier performer who delivers a superior show every time, whether solo or with a band. She writes full shows into each song and is an endless spring of inspiration. But wait! There's more! She is also an artist, author and level headed business woman who has begun, organized and made successful several organizations of songwriters and artists - which is sort of like herding cats. She is one of the great business women of Hollywood.

Gilli is a a hard working, talented lady who has spent years promoting and advocating artists' rights. Songsalive! not only promotes artists but also spends time educating artists. And she's a wonderful person too! I hold Gilli in the highest regard, and know whatever she pursues she does it well!
-Sindee Levin, Music Attorney |

Gilli is a brilliant over-achiever in everything she puts her mind to accomplish. Her organizations, Songsalive! and Warrior Girl Music both contribute enormously to the causes and opportunities for emerging singers, songwriters and musicians. We have worked together and supported each other's organizations and it has been a pleasure. A forward-thinking, cutting edge professional as an author, lecturer, teacher, promoter and artist, Gilli will continue to be a leader in the arts, especially in music, both in the Los Angeles area and around the world, for years to come.
-Judy Lamppu |

Gilli brings a wealth of experience and positive energy to the causes to which she is committed, and we have successfully worked together on a variety of projects to help artists achieve their goals.
-Bill Pere, Connecticut Songwriters Association |

I have had the pleasure of knowing Gilli for over ten years and she is a wonder. A wiz at both left-brain and right-brain stuff, she is highly creative and technical too. When we worked together touring with Eric Idle, I watched her dive into the daunting role of stage manager and perform it (as well as sing on stage!) with grace, efficiency and excellence. She is organized, a strategic thinker and can do anything she sets her mind to and do it well.
-Jennifer Johnson-Bell |

Gilli is an excellent sounding board. Has many great business/planning/music ideas, which she freely shares, based on her innate creativity & experience. She's a great source to utilize to get some movement & fresh ideas.

Just want to let you know I've REALLY been enjoying all the information. I have been listening to the videos and podcasts have been so helpful! I really enjoyed especially the DIY podcasts about your background, your experiences in the entertainment business - the honest info on the ups and downs on the business. The fact that you created your own songwriting organization Songsalive and Warrior Girl Music record label is awesome! You are very inspiring as you have this "get up and go attitude" whatever you set your mind to do - you make happen! You have to be extremely organized and knowledgeable about this business to have accomplished this, to record all these videos, podcasts, write all these books! Plus doing your own songwriting recording 7 albums! I am so in awe to see one person accomplish all this and at the same time never be so busy as to also help mentor fellow artists and songwriters to help become successful in this business! I really enjoy hearing about music business tips - the do's and don'ts and the pitfalls and scams to avoid. It's just so refreshing to hear someone communicate on a down to earth level as if you know us and are friends with all of us! I am soooo glad you encouraged me to participate in this program! Thank you so much again!

Live Workshop testimonials
Gilli's workshop was a great way to jumpstart my musical career. The day was fun, insightful, and the most beneficial. Thanks for a great day!
- Johnny B
Great Workshop! Thanks for the input and insightful advice, pro advice to take a songwriter to the next level is very helpful.
- Anna Gossett Johnson
It was a good experience to come together with other writers. The feedback was valuable i.e. song analysis/structure. Will motivate me to revisit my song to add elements discussed today. Today's workshop was super constructive and thought provoking. I really enjoyed the audience interaction and participation while sharing thoughts on the analysis of a hit song. Gilli and Ric kept the program moving smoothly which allowed for the full playing and discussion of the day's music submissions. This meet up was three hours well spent.
- Nancy Kelel
Gilli seriously knows her craft, I got a lot out of this first workshop and plan on attending more in the future. Even as a successful songwriter, I learned a lot.
- Hunter Scott Macleod
What you may try to find in 15 years, you'll find in 3 hours.
This workshop was a birthday gift for my friend Suzanne. I'm more of a screen writer, but I was able to apply my skills to songwriting. I haven't performed vocally in years. Because of Gilli and Songsalive! I'm inspired to perform again.
Very fun learning experience. I think it would be interesting if we had a subject given to us like peanut butter & jelly or horses…. anything crazy. Just to see what we could come up with to get out of our boxes. I feel like you all are very supportive and caring. In addition, I really like that you allow things to happen instead of just faking over it if you are not getting it.
Very inspiring and a good philosophy to get over blocks and just start writing and collaborating. Very enjoyable.
This was a wonderful and unique experience. I would love to participate in another songcamp. Great staff and attendees.
I liked the diversity of the talents and styles, and it was very informative. I also really appreciated the opportunity to experience the process of collaboration. Definitely will be back.
Great Day and Workshop! We could use more like this.
