Fried Peaches: Book Description
This is the tagline from Amazon...
Ed 'Monty' Montgomery wrote a one-hit wonder song in the 1990s with his Seattle grunge band. Twenty years later, he's stuck in a dysfunctional indie rock group playing the same 15 songs every night with musicians half his age. Lonely, creatively bankrupt, and struggling to relate to his millennial bandmates, Monty flies under the radar because everyone around him is too self-involved to notice his raging addiction to painkillers. Lost in a pharmaceutical haze, Monty needs to end the destructive cycle before the nonstop partying catches up to him. Fried Peaches is the story of Monty’s last 30 days on the road as he reckons with his past mistakes and struggles to envision his creative future in an industry he barely recognizes anymore.

The soundtrack for Fried Peaches is comprised of three mixes titled Act 1, Act 2, and Act 3. Listen along in the background with each corresponding part of the novel to enhance your journey. Or listen after a reading session while you're digesting the words.
Music is utilized in film to manipulate mood and atmosphere. I'm trying to do the same with these curated mixes (available on Spotify and YouTube).
