Blondie's Chris Stein recently took to social media to announce that he will release a new memoir, titled "Under A Rock," next year.
"OK here we go. I've been working on this memoir for two years and it'll show up allegedly in 2024," the Blondie co-founder and guitarist posted on Instagram. "I mean, I like it… I wrote the whole f*****g thing myself. It's got a lot of weird ass stuff that actually happened even if it might seem made up. I'm quite looking forward to people interacting with it."
Blondie frontwoman Debbie Harry has written the foreword for the memoir.
Publisher Macmillan says, "Chris Stein knows how to tell a story. Under A Rock is his nothing-spared autobiography. It's about the founding of the band, ascending to the heights of pop success, and the hazards of fortune."
"Famous names march through these pages—Warhol, Bowie, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and more-but you can get famous names anywhere. What you can't get anywhere else is a plunge into the moments that made a giant 1980's artistic sensation. Stein takes us there in this revelatory, propulsive, distinctive memoir," they add.
