Reverberation : do everything better with music / by Blanchard, Keith,1966-author.; Gabriel, Peter,1950-writer of foreword.;
Includes bibliographical references."Music has been part of every human culture. We listen to music while we drive, exercise, eat, sleep, study, you name it; we spend hundreds to watch live musical performances; we soundtrack our weddings and funerals and everything in between. But why? We put music at the forefront of our lives because every drum solo and every aria causes our brains to fire off a cocktail of feel-good neurotransmitters: dopamine, serotonin, endorphins, and oxytocin. Reverberation: Do Everything Better with Music is the perfect hybrid of neuroscience and pop culture, examining, deconstructing, and teaching us about the ways in which we can, do, and should use music in our everyday lives. With a foreword by Peter Gabriel and jam-packed with interviews with other artists and celebrities, this illustrated book explains the science behind how music motivates us and gives us useful tips, tricks, and playlists for how we can become the best version of ourselves through our music-listening habits. Touching on topics such as sleeping, studying and focusing, exercising, sex and love, aging and memory, meditating and chilling out, emotional healing, creating, pregnancy, and music in altered states, this book covers a wide range of topics and all genres of music"--

We oughta know : how Céline, Shania, Alanis, and Sarah ruled the '90s and changed music / by Warner, Andrea,author.; Shraya, Vivek,1981-writer of foreword.;
Includes bibliographical references."A lively collection of essays that re-examines the extraordinary legacies of the four Canadian women who dominated '90s music and changed the industry forever. Fully revised and updated, with a foreword by Vivek Shraya In this of-the-moment essay collection, celebrated music journalist Andrea Warner explores the ways in which Céline Dion, Shania Twain, Alanis Morissette, and Sarah McLachlan became legit global superstars and revolutionized '90s music. In an era when male-fronted musical acts were given magazine covers, Grammys and Junos, and serious critical consideration, these four women were reduced, mocked, and disparaged by the media and became pop culture jokes even as their recordings were demolishing sales records. The world is now reconsidering the treatment and reputations of key women in '90s entertainment, and We Oughta Know is a crucial part of that conversation. With empathy, humor, and reflections on her own teenaged perceptions of Céline, Shania, Alanis, and Sarah, Warner offers us a new perspective on the music and legacies of the four Canadian women who dominated the '90s airwaves and influenced an entire generation of current-day popstars with their voices, fashion, and advocacy."--

One foot on the platform : a rock 'n' roll journey : writings on music / by Goddard, Peter,author.; Wainwright, J. A.,1946-editor.;
"In the summer of 2020, acclaimed music critic and journalist Peter Goddard began work on a new book that would take readers on a journey back through his fifty-plus years spent writing professionally about rock music and the musical styles circling it -- everything from blues and jazz to country and classical. His plan was to revisit his old haunts and their habitués, scenes and figures he first wrote about starting in the mid-1960s when he became Canada's first on-staff popular music critic, to show how ongoing revisions continually reframe first impressions. Tragically, Goddard died in 2022 before work on the manuscript was complete. But many of the core essays -- on Bob Dylan, John Lennon and Yoko Ono, the Who, k.d. lang, David Bowie, Liza Minelli, the Band, Neil Diamond, and others -- are here. Accompanying these new essays is a collection of some of the best writing of Goddard's career -- ranging from interviews with B.B. King, Joni Mitchell, Paul Simon, Bruce Springsteen, and Janis Joplin to reviews of classic albums by the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and Neil Young to close readings of Leonard Cohen, Anne Murray, Led Zeppelin, and Gordon Lightfoot. Taken as a whole, One Foot on the Platform represents more than fifty years of thought and writing by one of Canada's foremost cultural critics."--

Only one survives / by McKinnon, Hannah Mary,author.;
All drummer Vienna Taylor ever wanted was to make music. If that came with fame, she'd take it--as long as her best friend, guitarist Madison Pierce, was sharing the spotlight and singing lead. And with their new all-female pop rock band gaining traction, soon everyone would hear their songs ... Except, on the way to an event, the Bittersweet's van careened off an icy mountain road during a blizzard--leaving one member dead and another severely injured. In order to survive the frigid night, the rest took shelter in a nearby abandoned cabin. But Vienna's dreams devolved into a terrifying nightmare as, one by one, her fellow band members met a gruesome end ... and Madison simply vanished in the night. What really happened to the Bittersweet? Did Vienna's closest friend finally decide to take center stage on her own terms? She doesn't want to believe it. But guilty people run.
