Ebook: What is Hip?: The Life and Times of The Tragically Hip

"The Tragically Hip... the soundtrack our our lives." - Justin Trudeau On August 20th, 2016 11.7 million Canadians stood transfixed, watching the final concert of The Tragically Hip, and the rest of the world asked, "Who is this band?" New York Times Bestselling pop journalist Marc Shapiro answers that question in the first major book about this Canadian rock band that largely shunned the spotlight but has become the standard bearer of a resurgent sense of Canadian pride and patriotism. What is Hip? The Life And Times Of The Tragically Hip delves deep beneath the surface of this rock and roll story to discover how a band that spent more than three decades in the rock and roll trenches selling millions of albums and opening for the likes of The Rolling Stones, The Who and Led Zeppelin's Page & Plant, remained almost unknown outside their home country, even as they rose to the level of rock royalty in Canada.
