Description
"Witty, nostalgic, rhythmic and forlorn, Matt Mason's poetry calls on the classic rock music that shaped him. Mason laments on his childhood in the 80s and addresses the graduating preschool class of 2023, as he takes us on the coming-of-age roadtrip of a lifetime. An ode and ovation to what our ears taught us before we knew what to say, Rock Stars riffs on all things music, poetry, sports, and more. You ll be itching with anticipation to flip over the tape, and see what the next track has in store"--
