2015-08-24 01:03:52| Powells Books Events Calendar
In 1985, the Olympia, Washington, band Beat Happening released their eponymous debut of lo-fi pop songs on K Records and challenged every conception held about music. At the center of the group was the enigmatic Calvin Johnson and his revolutionary vision of artistic creation. Bryan C. Parker's Beat Happening's Beat Happening (Bloomsbury) is the story of a band that popularized do-it-yourself projects and home recording decades before the digital revolution. Parker will be joined at the event by Beat Happening and K Records founder Calvin Johnson.
