For anyone who loved Almost Famous or This Is Spinal Tap. After being dropped from one band, sixteen-year-old drummer Zach gets a chance to go on tour with a much better band.

Zach is a character teens will stand up and cheer for as he lands the perfect gig, and the perfect girl. âA must-read for young garage-band types.â âBooklist  âReaders and especially musicians should enjoy debut novelist Parsonsâs look at a band on the run.â âPublishers Weekly  âA road-trip adventure in romance and friendship that is ultimately all about the music.â âKirkus Reviews
