WINNER OF THE NORTH STREET BOOK PRIZE 2018 IN LITERARY FICTION. While fully engaged in the pursuit of her career as a novelist, Angela Carole Brown has actually spent the past two decades making her living as a musician. So it is only fitting that her first literary release is a tale of music. Described as a Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance for musicians, TRADING FOURS spins a single day in the life of four people who must each face a crossroads in their lives.

TRISTAN BAYLOR, SETH ROBB, CHLOE BAPTISTE and NICK BRANDT are struggling Los Angeles musicians, doing the casual circuit (weddings, bar mitzvahs, et al), and who are, on the day in question, faced with a plight to which each must seek a resolve. These are imperfect people. They have their hubris and their vanities, their pains, fears, and pettiness. They are haunted by failed loves, failing relationships and addictions. TRADING FOURS is an exploration into a special world that most do not know exists after the champagne is popped, the cake is cut, and the bouquet is thrown. By the end of the business day, these musicians' lives will have intersected in ways much like the intersection of a musical trading fours that builds to a dramatic cadence.
