SONGS BY HONEYBIRD is the second novel by Peter McDade. Peter is a jack of many trades -- drummer in Uncle Green/3 Lb. Thrill, Paul Melancon and the Insecurities, The Good Graces, and Bob Fenster & The Windows to name a few, a college history professor, and a brilliant writer. THE WEIGHT OF SOUND is one of the best first novels I've ever read and I think it's better than the music-based novels of Tom Perrotta and Jonathan Tropper, my favorite authors. Professor McDade is also a first-class mensch and a favorite person of virtually everyone who knows him. We dug deep into HONEYBIRD in this interview... a book which just so happens to come out TODAY!
