I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BRAD SINGS - BOOKS & MAGS
I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BRAD SINGS is the story of a band you’ve probably never heard, a music magazine you’ve likely not read, and a hip-pocketed arts and entertainment scene eclectic enough to have spawned jazz cornetist Bix Beiderbecke, porn star Lisa DeLeeuw, and Dick Tracy/Road to Perdition author Max Allan Collins.
Taken from Harvey’s journals and private archives, I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BRAD SINGS is a pop culture reveal that includes secret histories of The Beatles and Cheap Trick, the tale of forgotten country star Jack Barlow, stories on Tiny Tim, Fredlo Records, and pioneering radio station KFMH, along with a deep dig into the fertile garage band scene of Eastern Iowa and Western Illinois featuring PS, No Dice, The Daybreakers, The Contents Are, Psycho Gene and the Neonz, The Jets, Silver Laughter, The New Duncan Imperials, Einstein’s Sister, Lynn Allen, Cold Stare, and many others.
