By Evan Dando<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\nTHE EDITED PRESS RELEASE:<\/strong> \u201cEvan Dando<\/strong>, front man of The Lemonheads<\/strong> and poster boy of Gen X, spills the true story of his band\u2019s tumultuous history and what it was like to be famous in the pre-internet days in this candid, colorful, and unputdownable memoir. After Kurt Cobain<\/strong>\u2019s passing in 1994, everyone expected Dando to be next. The singer, songwriter and actor started in the \u201980s hardcore scene and went on to become a \u201990s icon. Think of Dando, and you think of heroin chic, grunge and celebrity burnout. Perhaps known as much for his partying and boyish good looks, after two gold records and the kind of fame that you just can\u2019t enjoy anymore, The Lemonheads<\/strong> cooled off and life went on. Dando grew up in Boston, the son of a lawyer and a model, and attended the prestigious Commonwealth School<\/strong>. Fame was never what motivated him but the lure of the wild life proved trickier to refuse. From sneaking into concerts as a child, to sleeping on floors in the punk rock days, to crashing at Johnny Depp<\/strong>\u2019s place in Hollywood, he was right there in the thick of it. So much so, that social media once reported his death. Now, very much alive, sober, and enjoying a life in South America when he\u2019s not on the road, Dando is going to tell his own story. His memoir will remind readers what was so great about the pre-internet \u201990s: The innocence, the access, and the anonymity. Reclaiming the purity and exuberance of his early days and encapsulating the spirit of the era, this candid autobiography presents a portrait of an artist who lives wholly for his music, and one that makes no apologies for doing so.\u201d<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n

Last Rites<\/strong><\/span><\/em>
By Ozzy Osbourne<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\nTHE EDITED PRESS RELEASE:<\/strong> \u201cPeople say to me, if you could do it all again, knowing what you know now, would you change anything? I\u2019m like, f*** no. If I\u2019d been clean and sober, I wouldn\u2019t be Ozzy. If I\u2019d done normal, sensitive things, I wouldn\u2019t be Ozzy.\u201d At the age of 69, Ozzy Osbourne<\/strong> was on a triumphant farewell tour, playing to sold-out arenas and rave reviews all around the world. Then: Disaster. In a matter of just a few weeks, he went from being hospitalised with a finger infection to having to abandon his tour \u2014 and all public life \u2014 as he faced near-total paralysis from the neck down. Last Rites is the shocking, bitterly hilarious, never-before-told story of Ozzy\u2019s descent into hell. Along the way, he reflects on his extraordinary life and career, including his marriage to wife Sharon<\/strong>, as well as what it took for him to get back onstage for the triumphant Back To The Beginning<\/em> concert, streamed around the world, where Ozzy reunited with his Black Sabbath<\/strong> bandmates for the final time. Unflinching, brutally honest, but surprisingly life-affirming, Last Rites<\/em> demonstrates once again why Ozzy has transcended his status as The Godfather Of Metal<\/strong> and The Prince Of Darkness<\/strong> to become a modern-day folk hero and national treasure.\u201d<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n

By Mark Blake<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\nTHE EDITED PRESS RELEASE:<\/strong> \u201cBestselling music author Mark Blake<\/strong> has been an associate and collaborator of Pink Floyd<\/strong> for over 30 years. Shine On<\/em> takes on the behemoth task of capturing the most comprehensive history of the band ever compiled, drawing on huge amounts of new, archive and unpublished interview material with David Gilmour<\/strong>, Roger Waters<\/strong>, Nick Mason<\/strong> and Richard Wright<\/strong>. No other writer has interviewed the members of Pink Floyd<\/strong> as often nor as thoroughly, which is candidly apparent in this textured, gripping and consistently surprising biography. For the first time, the band\u2019s story is told as an oral history with each chapter presented through the words the band, their friends, contemporaries and supporting musicians. The accessible structure and high level of detail means that the narrative is both approachable to casual readers and magnetic to the committed. Shine On<\/em> is comprised of a significant amount of previously unpublished material, including a rare interview with Rosemary Breen<\/strong> lamenting that her younger brother Roger <\/strong>(aka Syd<\/strong>) Barrett<\/strong>, should have never become a musician, as well as exclusive new interviews with the band and their associates, reflecting on their enduring legacy and rather more complicated recent twists and turns in the bands story.

Yet, his own star has often been overshadowed by his world-famous father. The first book ever published about Frank Jr., Let Me Be Frank <\/em>details how this complex and often misunderstood artist dealt with professional struggles, personal demons, and endless comparisons with his father to emerge as a thriving performer who finally made peace with the name Sinatra. Let Me Be Frank<\/em> chronicles Frank Jr.\u2019s life and music career, including the lifetime loyalty of his friends and bandsmen, and his notorious womanizing.

Included are over 40 interviews with Frank Jr.\u2019s friends, family, and colleagues.

Her effortless style and artistic legacy have been immortalized through her music and film career. And, of course, she was the inspiration behind one of the world\u2019s most coveted bags, the Herm\u00e8s Birkin<\/strong>. But who was the real woman behind the it girl? Bestselling author Marisa Meltzer<\/strong> sheds new light on Birkin\u2019s enigmatic life and explores her profound influence on generations in a rigorously reported biography unlike any other. It Girl<\/em> paints a vivid portrait of Birkin and her profound legacy, from her early years in 1960s London to her rise as a beloved celebrity in France, detailing personal challenges, her relationships with creative powerhouses, and the duality of her public and private selves. Based on interviews and deep archival research, Meltzer reveals the nuances of Birkin\u2019s character: Her famously tempestuous romantic relationships, life with her three famous daughters, and the creative energy that drove her. It Girl<\/em> tells the story of her indelible impact on femininity and style, and how what we think of as French girl style grew from her.

Now at the end of his long career, Curtis is considered a rock \u2019n\u2019 roll trailblazer. He toured the world with The Crickets<\/strong> and Waylon Jennings<\/strong>. He wrote the classic songs I Fought The Law, Love Is All Around<\/em>\u00a0(the theme song to The Mary Tyler Moore Show<\/em>), and the country standard I\u2019m No Stranger To The Rain<\/em>. Curtis left an impression on American myth and music that has gone heretofore undocumented. But to the author, Sonny was a loving if cryptic father as elusive as the spotlight itself. Part biography, part memoir, Daughter Of A Song<\/em> braids together an insider\u2019s perspective on an outsider\u2019s life. With Sonny out on the road for long stretches, Sarah Curtis<\/strong> pieced his life and legacy together through research and recollection, following her father from the 1950s birth of rock \u2019n\u2019 roll in West Texas to the 1960s Hollywood scene where Sonny met his wife, a Vietnam War protester and California hippie. The two of them would leave Hollywood behind for the rural Tennessee cattle farm where they raised Sarah. With vivid storytelling, cultural commentary, lyrical prose, and a dose of humor, Daughter Of A Song<\/em> considers the complexities of fate and fame, the cultures we shape and the ones that shape us. It is the story of a man saved by art, and the daughter who must navigate to the center of his creativity to reckon with her own.\u201d<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
