درباره این اپیزود
Join Sherry for Just Push Play - A Music Podcast: Interview with Anna-Marie O'Brien, author of Adventures of a Metalhead Librarian. Lonn Friend, former RIP magazine editor and all around great guy, penned the Foreword and joins us for the conversation.
In this heartfelt debut memoir, Anna-Marie O’Brien shares a poignant coming-of-age story about sex, drugs, and rock n’ roll and what it took for her to survive in the big city.
In 1990, Anna-Marie left her disappointing Midwestern childhood behind and moved to Los Angeles at the age of 18 to pursue her heavy metal dreams on the Sunset Strip. Bands like Mötley Crüe, Megadeth, and Guns N’ Roses were at the height of their popularity, and she landed right in the middle of the heavy-metal music scene.
Welcomed by sunshine and possibilities, her California adventure began the very first day she arrived in magical Laurel Canyon.
Soon, she was working in the music industry, and then for Metal Blade Records. Working with her favorite bands and witnessing music history was a dream come true. But, things were not all as they seemed. Grunge music had arrived from Seattle, and it was taking over the metal scene. Los Angeles turned into a dark force, forcing her to make tough choices in order to survive.
This is a story of big magic, following your heart, and starting over. Anna-Marie is a real-life librarian, and a lifelong fan of heavy metal and rock music.
This is Adventures of a Metalhead Librarian.
