Books by David Frangioni

Trusted by Legends book cover by David Frangioni, foreword by Paul Stanley, showing David with KISS

TRUSTED BY LEGENDS: SUCCESS IN MUSIC, AUDIO PRODUCTION, AND THE PERFORMING ARTS

New Book · Coming Late 2026 · Foreword by Paul Stanley

Trusted by Legends is my story of what it takes to earn, and keep, the trust of the world’s top artists. The famous names are part of it, but the real subject is what those rooms demanded: the preparation, judgment, and discipline behind every result. The book closes with a practical playbook for getting into the right rooms, becoming indispensable, and building authority that lasts.

Inside: lessons on the music business, artist development, audio production, and leadership in music and media, drawn from decades of work with legendary artists.

“David is a winner, but not of a short race. He prepared for the marathon and won.”

— Paul Stanley, from the Foreword
