A bewitching memoir about the lures; torments; and rewards of making and performing music in the indie rock world Dean Warehams seminal bands Galaxie 500 and Luna have long been adored by a devoted cult following and extolled by rock critics. Now he brings us the blunt; heartbreaking; and wickedly charismatic account of his personal journey through the music world-the artistry and the hustle; the effortless success and the high living; as well as the bitter pills and self-inflicted wounds. It captures; unsparingly; what has happened to the entire ecosystem of popular music over a time of radical change; when categories such as "indie" and "alternative" meant nothing to those creating the music; but everything to the major labels willing to pay for it. Black Postcards is a must-have for Warehams many fans; anyone who has ever been in a band; or the listeners who have taken an interest in the indie rock scene over the last twenty years.
