As autumn approaches and the leaves start to change, a fresh lineup of music-inspired books is preparing to hit the shelves. This fall promises stories from some of the biggest names across genres, making it an exciting season for fans and readers alike.
Mark Ronson’s Highly Anticipated Memoir
September will kick things off with super-producer Mark Ronson’s long-awaited memoir. The Grammy and Oscar-winning artist shared his excitement earlier this year on Instagram, revealing, “Yesterday I held my book for the first time. Not in a digital doc or a pdf but as an actual physical object with typeset words and real book font. I somehow forgot that thousands of hours of writing, deleting, doubting, would eventually transform into this tangible thing I can now hold in my hands…flipping through it is fully mind-blowing and emotional.”
October Brings Ozzy Osbourne, Cat Stevens & Gucci Mane
October will see the release of a deeply anticipated project — a posthumous memoir from the Prince of Darkness himself, Ozzy Osbourne. Also that month, Cat Stevens will debut Cat On The Road To Findout: The Official Autobiography, named after his classic Tea for the Tillerman track. Meanwhile, rapper Gucci Mane is set to publish his second memoir, continuing the story he first shared in 2016.
Dolly Parton & Kenny Chesney Round Out the Year in November
The season closes strong in November with two country legends. Kenny Chesney will invite fans into his world with a book that explores both his music career and his easygoing lifestyle. He first revealed the project back in February on CBS Mornings, saying: “For the first time, I get to share with my audience and the world a lot of unique stories… As far as being in the business, I’ve never been good at talking about myself… But now I felt it was the time.”
At the same time, Dolly Parton is set to release a deluxe edition of the third volume in her acclaimed photographic memoir series, giving fans an even deeper look into her legendary journey.
