Erik Grönwall shot to stardom over night when he won the Swedish edition of Idol. In his autobiography, <i>Power - Music, Death, Life</i>, we follow Erik&rsquo;s life from his upbringing till today; his struggles to make it as an artist, his devastating leukemia diagnosis at the height of the pandemic, and his miraculous recovery. The book also covers how he came to be the lead singer in legendary metal band, Skid Row, his time in the band, and the reasons for his decision to later leave the band. This is not only a story about life in the limelight and being a rockstar, this is a book about staying true to your values and dreams and how to stand your ground and believe in yourself even when it is not the obvious choice.<br/><br/>&ldquo;I never thought I would write an autobiography, let alone at an age of 36. But sometimes I feel like I have lived two lifetimes in the quarter of a life. I believe I have something to share that might give hope and inspiration to others that are struggling. Life after an illness can actually turn out to be better than ever."<br/><br/><b>Erik Grönwall</b>, b. 1987, is a singer and songwriter, he won Swedish Idol and was the lead in bands like H.E.A.T and Skidrow. And who knows what next, despite all the life lived, he just recently turned 36.

<b>'Fascinating, funny and tender' ADAM BUXTON</b><br/><br/><b>'My favourite writer and interviewer' JUDE ROGERS</b><br/><br/><b>'If Kate Mossman's name is on it, then I want to read it' PETE PAPHIDES</b><br/><br/>From Jeff Beck to Ray Davies, Jon Bon Jovi to Kevin Ayers, Kate Mossman has long fostered an interest in male musicians of a certain age.<br/><br/>Why is it that when I meet them, I feel something ignite inside me? What is this strange connection - to feel so excited, yet so at ease? And how is it that in the presence of a wrinkly rock star twice my age, I sometimes feel like I'm meeting . . . me?<br/>Featuring nineteen long-form profiles lovingly constructed for <i>The Word</i> magazine and the <i>New Statesman</i>, <i>Men of a Certain Age</i> chronicles the lives of some of the biggest rock stars of our time, including Brian May, Gene Simmons, Terence Trent D'Arby, Johnny Rotten and Nick Cave.<br/><br/>The book is a meditation on the powerful archetype of the ageing rock star, but it is also a personal story - of music and obsession, and of the deep unconscious projections at play in our relationships with the famous people who most capture our hearts. As Kate travels 5,000 miles to try and find Glen Campbell, and to the depths of the Cornish countryside for a rendezvous with Roger Taylor, will she finally unravel the roots of her obsession with the elder statesmen of rock?
