Um þessa hljóðbók

Long before Cold Chisel and Barnesy, long before the success and excess, there was the true story of James Dixon Swan – a working class boy whose family made the journey from Scotland to Australia in search of a better life. Working Class Boy is a powerful reflection on a traumatic and violent childhood, which fuelled the excess and recklessness that would define, but almost destroy, the rock’n’roll legend. This is the story of how James Swan became Jimmy Barnes. It is a memoir burning with the frustration and frenetic energy of teenage sex, drugs, violence and ambition for more than what you have. WARNING: STRONG VIOLENCE, THEMES AND COARSE LANGUAGE

Um höfundinn

Jimmy Barnes is a Scottish-born rock singer songwriter who grew up in Adelaide. His career, both as a solo performer and as the lead vocalist of the legendary band Cold Chisel, has made him one of the most successful and distinctive artists in Australian music history. He has amassed more number-one albums in Australia than The Beatles and he has been inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame twice. Jimmy’s childhood memoir, Working Class Boy, became a bestseller and won the ABIA Biography of the Year in 2017. His sequel, Working Class Man, won him a second ABIA in 2018. These were followed by a bestselling collection of short stories, Killing Time. Having sold more than 600,000 copies, the books have become Australian classics and established Jimmy as one of our finest storytellers.
