Description

At the age of 15, Cherie Currie joined a group of talented young musicians who would go on to rock the Los Angeles music scene in 1975. The Runaways quickly gained a reputation for their energetic live performances, selling out major stadiums and touring the world alongside iconic bands like the Ramones and Van Halen.

This memoir chronicles the band's rise to fame and ultimate demise, but it's also a deeply personal account of Currie's struggles with the pressures of the music industry, including her experiences with drugs, abuse, and violence. A raw and unflinching look at the excesses of the 1970s rock scene, Neon Angel is a story of youth, rebellion, and the challenges of growing up too fast.
