They don't do it for the fame, they do it for the music - these rock legends and priestesses of sound are the outsiders, the trailblazers, artists who changed the face of music forever simply for the love of it. They don't do it for the fame, they do it for the music - these rock legends and priestesses of sound are the outsiders, the trailblazers, artists who changed the face of music forever simply for the love of it.
Although not widely known, each of these artists has changed the history of music. So, to celebrate the incredible contributions of these unsung heroes, Arnaud Le Gouefflec and Nicolas Moog have brought their stories to vivid life.
Discover the sensitive and manic-depressive genius Daniel Johnston; the Peruvian queen of exotica, Yma Sumac; the improbable blind and homeless Moondog; the classy bargain hunters of The Cramps; the legendary Patti Smith; and many, many more.
A veritable illustrated bible of the underground music scene, this anthology of 50 biographies invites you to discover little-known maestros and creators of underheard masterpieces. This is a book for the simply curious, as well as the connoisseur!
Arnaud Le Gouefflec is 47 years old and has many stories to tell. His career as an author, as atypical as it is prolific, is characterized by a refusal to let himself be locked into a genre. Both a novelist and comic book scriptwriter, he is also a singer and songwriter.
