What They've Said About Ghost Notes
"Ghost Notes is a worthy contribution to the pantheon of rock novels. This is a savvy, sharp, insider’s view of the rise and fall of a band and what can be lost and found along the way.â€
-Mark Lindquist, Author of Never Mind Nirvana and The King of Methlehem
“Engrossing, real, and well-written . . . The characters are relatable and honest.â€
-Laurie Notaro, Author of There’s a (Slight) Chance I Might Be Going to Hell: A Novel of Sewer Pipes, Pageant Queens, and Big Trouble
“Ghost Notes is the Almost Famous for the minor leaguers of rock ‘n’ roll. I read it straight through and loved it.â€
-Curtis Grippe, Arizona Republic/Dead Hot Workshop
About the Author
Art Edwards published his first novel, Stuck Outside of Phoenix, in 2003. It received several positive reviews, and it was nominated for the Star Program, a marketing support program offered to select iUniverse titles that sell at least 500 copies. Stuck Outside of Phoenix will be re-released on the Defunct Press imprint in 2009.
Art received a merit scholarship to attend the University of San Francisco's MFA in Writing program, graduating in 2002.
Art co-founded the Refreshments, a Tempe, Arizona-based rock band that recorded two albums for Mercury Records in the 1990s. The band's hit single, "Banditos," rose to number eleven on the alternative radio charts in 1996, and the band wrote and recorded the theme song for the Fox television series King of the Hill.
Art lives in St. Charles, Illinois with his wife, Raquel.
