ABOUT THE BOOK

ABOUT THE BOOK
Basement songs hold a special place in our hearts. Decades may pass when suddenly one of these melodies begins playing, instantly reminding you of the time and place it first sank its hooks into your heart or into your soul. It doesn't matter if it was at work, in a car, on your friend’s radio, or in your parents’ basement. What does matter is the music and how it still affects you.
In this unique collection of essays, Scott Malchus explores the songs that influenced and guided him throughout the years: from his discovery of popular music as performed by a green felt puppet to the rock anthems played by a Journey cover band. In between, life-long friendships are forged, true love is found and adversity is met head-on. Each defining moment in his life married to a song and each song an anchor to an everlasting memory. Basement Songs is a journey full of heart, humor and above all, a love of music.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
When not obsessing about the Cleveland Indians or Bruce Springsteen's next album, Scott Malchus writes screenplays, novels, comic books and the popular "Basement Songs" feature for POPDOSE.COM. In 2003, he wrote and directed the movie "King’s Highway" and in 2008 he co-wrote the Lifetime thriller, "Deceit."
Scott and his family live in the Los Angeles area where they are tirelessly involved with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and finding a cure for the disease. BASEMENT SONGS is his first book.
