This unique and first-of-its-kind telling of Philadelphia's rise to Rock and Roll royalty is now available through March Baby Media on several major online platforms. The book focuses on Philadelphia's musical history and diversity over the years, particularly its contributions to Rock music during the late 70s to the early 90s.
When We Rocked includes personal accounts from a number of Philadelphia-based artists who were interviewed for the book and explores the city's musical evolution from its Quaker origins to the Grunge era.
When We Rocked is written by author and historian Antonio Aloia and musician and The Cosmick Voice podcast host Mick Michaels with famed Philly drummer Johnny Dee (DORO/BRITNY FOX/TYKETTO) contributing to the book's heartfelt foreword.
"Being so close to Philadelphia, I am excited to see that the city's respective music scenes are chronicled and encapsulated for future generations," says co-author Aloia. "I hope that others will be inspired to share their stories and experiences that made the Philadelphia music scene unique!"
When We Rocked has been released in paperback and available on major online retailers like Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Ingram. Additionally, author-autographed copies will be available for purchase on the book's website in August.
"It's been such a trip back through time," says co-author Michaels. "There are always the things you remember, but it's those things that you forgot about that are always a rush when the memories come back... there's a lot of that in this book."
