Weird - The Life And Times Of A Pocket God (Paperback)


Weird is the biography of Mark Christopher Lee lead singer and songwriter in cult indie band - The Pocket Gods. This book charts the highs and lows of being in an unsigned indie band. From being discovered by the late John Peel and recording sessions for BBC Radio 1 and Radio 6, to playing gigs to one man and his dog in dubious London pubs. It captures the sights, sounds and smells of an up and coming indie band. It also explores Mark's relationship with the paranormal and the "weird" unexplainable things that have happened in his rock and roll journey. It's like Spinal Tap meets the X Files but with better snacks. Mark Whitby from Dandelion Radio has described the book as; "A tale from the far more interesting backwaters of modern music, with Mark and his band fighting to survive within the swirling evolutionary gloop. It's Mark's honesty that stands out. It reaches out and grabs you by the throat wringing fascinating observations out of every line whether you like them or not"
