The summer zine tour begins tonight!

I'm excited to announce that The Music & Work Project summer zine tour will be kicking off tonight in Philadelphia! I just picked up copies of the zine--Not for You: Stories of Music & Work from the Precarious Service Industry--from the printer this morning. At 7:00 pm, there will be a short reading and discussion at Wooden Shoe Books on South Street. The zine launch will be followed by another event tomorrow night at The Soapbox: Independent Publishing Center in West Philly at 8:00 pm.

The tour continues next week and through the rest of July. See below for the full tour schedule...

"This collection of stories presents Matt's reflections on his own experience, offering an implicit critique of empty labor and hierarchical power dynamics. On this tour, he will be presenting these stories and the ideas behind them, but also starting a conversation to gather the thoughts and stories of others along this theme for a second book." -Mad House Publications
