For one night only / by James, Jessica,(Jessica M.),1990-author.;
"Despite her fame as a former vocalist and current actress, Valerie Quinn's life does not rock. When her musical TV show finds itself on the network chopping block, Valerie hastily reassembles her old band, the Glitter Bats. A reunion concert could be herticket to success and good press, especially if people were to speculate about her with bassist Caleb Sloane. The only problem-they haven't spoken since the day the band fell apart ten years ago. Caleb had the makings of a rock god, but fallout from theGlitter Bats breakup left him resentful of the anxiety and heartbreak that fame had brought him. But when Valerie shows up at his doorstep after a decade with that devastating smile and a plea for help, he agrees to this wild scheme to pretend they're back together. You know...for the press. When Caleb struggles to pick up his rockstar persona again, Valerie helps him find his rhythm. And when Valerie is pulled off-key by the press, Caleb's presence keeps her in tune. Making music together revives the harmony between them-as well as the discord that led to the band's downfall. With their futures in the balance, can they survive a romantic reprise?"--

Utopia Avenue : a novel / by Mitchell, David(David Stephen),author.(CARDINAL)349191;
"Soho, London, 1967. Folk-rock-psychedelic quartet Utopia Avenue is formed. Guitarist Jasper de Zoet, a shy, half-Dutch public-school musical prodigy, was hearing voices long before he dropped acid. Keyboardist Elf Holloway must defy the prejudices of her bank manager father, her housewife mother, and her age to forge her own career. Bassist Dean Moss cannot, will not, spend his life on the factory floor like everyone else in Gravesend. Band manager Levon Frankland--gay, Jewish, and Canadian--is not unduly burdened by conscience. The drummer is a drummer. Over two years and two albums, Utopia Avenue navigates the dark end of the Sixties: its parties, drugs and egos, political change and personal tragedy; and the trials of life as a working band in London, the provinces, European capitals and, finally, the promised land of America. What is art? What is fame? What is music? How can the whole be more than the sum of its parts? Can idealism change the world? How does your youth shape your life? This is the story of Utopia Avenue. Not everyone lives to the end"--
