About This Item
DoppelHouse Press, 2020. New Book. Paperback. 416 pp. with illustrations.
The story of the American musician who opened the clandestine world of Leningrad punk and rock 'n' roll to the West.
Joanna Stingray was only 23 years old when she first set foot in the USSR and started meeting now-legendary musicians and artists of the Soviet underground like Boris Grebenshchikov, Sergei Kuryokhin, and Viktor Tsoi. By 1985, she was writing and recording with them, and smuggling their music to the West in order to produce the groundbreaking album Red Wave: 4 Underground Bands from the USSR. This is her testimony of youthful fortitude and rebellion, her love story, and proof of the power of music and youth culture over stagnancy and oppression. The book, written with her singer/songwriter daughter, Madison, includes Stingray's extensive collection of photographs, artworks, and interviews with the musicians.
