Nazareth’s Dan McCafferty – HuffPost 6.17.14
Mike Ragogna: Dan, what’s your advice for new artists?
Dan McCafferty: This is going to sound really old, but do what you like. If you don’t you’ll get talked into something by people telling you what you should do and you’ll end up not liking yourself very much and being pissed off by what you do. So enjoy what you do, and if it’s good and people like it, great. If it’s not good and people don’t like it, you’re enjoying it. It’s like saying to a painter or a guy that’s a good car mechanic; do something you like. Don’t be trendy, don’t really listen to establishment votes. And get a lawyer. Definitely get a lawyer. Definitely. And get a lawyer to watch the lawyer.
