Secret Stars: The Greatest Underdogs of the Rock 'n' Roll Era tells the incredible true stories of the ten best bands and songwriters of the last sixty years that you (mostly) didn't hear on the radio. For every band like the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and Nirvana or songwriters like Dylan, Hendrix and Springsteen who become iconic rock stars, there are bands and songwriters who are arguably every bit as talented... but you just haven't heard them or maybe even heard of them. YET. Secret Stars takes the reader on a journey through rock history to examine some of its best kept secrets like Arthur Lee & LOVE in the 1960s; Nick Drake and Big Star in the 1970s; Robyn Hitchcock from 1978-present as the Soft Boys, Robyn Hitchcock & the Egyptians, and solo; Tanya Donelly, the Queen Bee of indie rock, who co-founded Throwing Muses, the Breeders, and Belly; Joe Henry, the closest thing to Bob Dylan in the last thirty-five years; Elliott Smith, one of the most influential and talented songwriters and musicians of his generation; Robert Pollard of Guided by Voices, an indie rock god and the most prolific songwriter of all time; and Drive-by Truckers, the most critically-acclaimed Southern rock band (and rock band from the South) of the 21st century.
