Making a Scene in the American Heartland

Punks in Peoria

When I first saw this book I knew I needed to read it and I am so happy to say that it did not disappoint. A comprehensive history of the punk music scene out of Peoria, IL, Punks in Peoria kept a smile on my face the entire read as I reminisced about the music scene I grew up in. Although I didn't grow up in Peoria, lucky for me much of the spill-over made it to Chicago (duh!). If you're a fan of punk music you will love this book. 

5./5 Stars
