A book club for music fans: band histories, musician memoirs, scene chronicles, studio legends, and more.
If you like digging into backstories as much as listening to music, join us to discuss books, the occasional documentary or podcast, listen to music, and watch performance clips.
Because no one wants to spend time reading a book they don't like, each month we pick a theme and everyone gets to pick their own book to read. If the theme is Music Festivals, one person could read about Woodstock, another Coachella, and another the Montreaux Jazz Festival. Each person will bring something a little different to the conversation, and (hopefully) everyone will leave with another title for their to-read list.
Monthly Topics:
June— DNF: We all have that great book that we never finished. This is your chance. This month, finish that book!
July-- It came from Ohio: books about bands and musicians with Ohio roots
Aug-- Music as Medicine: books about music as therapy for mental and physical illnesses
Meeting Location: the Sue Hutson Reading Room, at the back of the Adult Department.
Our knowledgeable staff specialize in Adult, Youth, Reference, Media, Computer, and Outreach Services to meet the diverse needs of our patrons.
