Books About Bands
by Frank Portman
Being in a band could possibly be the secret to the girl thing -- but good luck finding a drummer who can count to four.
Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie
by Jordan Sonnenblick
Thirteen-year-old Steven plays drums in the all-star jazz band, has a crush on the hottest girl in the school, and is constantly annoyed by his five-year-old brother, Jeffrey. But when Jeffrey is diagnosed with leukemia, Steven's world is turned upside down.
by K.L. Denman
Jay, Kelvin and Cia are The Lunar Ticks, a dedicated band, convinced they are on their way to the top. They hope to win an upcoming battle of the bands where the first prize is a full day in a recording studio. Going up against Indigo Daze, a band from another school, Jay finds himself falling for Rowan, the leader of the other band.
by K.L Going
Troy Billings is seventeen, 296 pounds, friendless, utterly miserable, and about to step off a New York subway platform in front of an oncoming train. Until he meets Curt MacCrae, an emaciated, semi-homeless, high school dropout guitar genius, the stuff of which Lower East Side punk rock legends are made. Together, Curt and Troy will change the world of punk, and Troy's own life, forever.
by Nelson Blake
Music is Pete's life. He's happiest when he's playing his Fender Precision bass, whether he's jamming with his dad at 2 a.m. or covering Top 40 hits. Pete doesn't care about playing the hottest club or getting the cutest girl. For him, it's all about the quality of the music. Until he meets the Carlisle brothers.
