Reviews

Mark Anderson has magically brought together two only apparently opposing worlds--a passion for pop music and his boyhood as an evangelical preacher's son--in this winning memoir. What a beauty it is, by turns searching and hilarious. This is not just another coming-of-age story. Anderson's eloquent and fresh reflection on the wild ride American culture--and the American family --has taken in the past quarter century introduces a welcome new voice.

For anyone who's juggled the lures of Saturday night fever with the limits of Sunday morning fervor, Jesus Sound Explosion is the new New Testament--a funny, insightful rumination on higher fidelity and the not-so-disparate ingredients that make up and sustain the soul. -- MinneapolisCity Pages
