“EASILY THE GREATEST BOOK EVER WRITTEN ABOUT MUSIC AND BEING IN A BAND” ERIC ALPER, SIRIUS XM
Following the runaway success of his first book, ‘Noise Damage’ which topped the Amazon Best Sellers charts in Heavy Metal Books, Punk Books and Music Books, James Kennedy has just released his follow up book, ‘Loud Medicine’ which was published by UWP Books on the 5th of June.
Kennedy Podcast’ from South Wales says: “Noise Damage was a tough act to follow but I’ve worked really hard on this one and I’m so excited that people can finally read it.”
‘Loud Medicine’ is a collection of musings on all things good, bad and ugly about music and the music industry. The book takes the reader on a joyride through the hidden world of the everyday musician where they share every ill-conceived adventure, battle scar and industry screw-over. They’ll also learn how they can save our grass roots venues, support their favourite artists, protect their mental health, why God is a Jazzer, what you should never say to a musician and what exactly is an Evian Shower.
By the end of the trip, the book will serve as a music lovers manifesto for change and a musicians manual for survival. It’s also a love letter to everyone’s favourite medicine and the people who make it. Whether you’re a musician, a music fan or just out for a good time, ‘Loud Medicine’ will have you laughing, learning and losing your mind in dismay. You may even come away feeling more inspired, informed and mobilised.
