TN Writers | TN Stories: Charlie Peacock, "Roots and Rhythm: A Life in Music"

In this artful memoir, Roots and Rhythm, Grammy Award–winning music producer Charlie Peacock flexes his literary chops and gives readers the gritty backstage stories they crave: biographical anecdotes, geeky trivia, and how the hits were written and recorded (from jazz to rock and pop). Threaded throughout is Peacock’s unique ancestral and spiritual story—the roots. Like Coltrane, Dylan, and Bono before him, Peacock reveals a Christ-affection while refusing genres too small for his music. Peacock, the great-grandson of a Louisiana fiddler, is an American musical polymath. Peacock will be joined by Jason Moon Wilkins, Program Director from WNXP in Nashville.
