Multi-disciplinary artist Robert Dayton taps his Canadian roots to reveal mind-blowing stories of musicians fighting to be heard. Published by Feral House, Cold Glitter covers Glam Rock in Canada with style and humor and explores the universality of creating music and art far from cultural capitals. This book is a voyage of PIZZAZZAMATAZZ for anyone interested in excitement and Glam in general as well as those most curious about under-acknowledged parts of Canadian cultural history. Over 400 pages of excitement!
Countless original interviews (Sweeney Todd! Rough Trade! Fludd! Crackers! Danger! Aut’Chose!)... This book documents Glam in Canada primarily in the 1970s. Anything with a bit of pixie dust that is outrageous and kicks against Canadian cultural conservatism involving music, fashion, strong visuals, gender play, and performance.
