MIKE DOUGHTY ANNOUNCES NEW MEMOIR,
“THE BOOK OF DRUGS,” AND CONCERT/Q&A TOUR

Mike Doughty

On Feb. 1, Da Capo Press releases The Book of Drugs, Mike Doughty‘s enthralling memoir of his life, career, addiction, and the doomed-from-the-start, eight-year roller coaster ride of his former band, Soul Coughing. Doughty will tour the eastern U.S. in February, performing music solo, reading from the book, and answering audience questions each night. See below for a complete list of dates.

“The Book of Drugs” can be pre-ordered from Amazon now at http://amzn.to/book-of-drugs.

Doughty’s next music release will be The Question Jar Show, a two-disc live album culled from recordings of his 2009 tour of the same name. On the album, Doughty and sideman Andrew “Scrap” Livingston play songs and answer questions that audience members had written and placed in a jar on the stage before the start of each show. The Question Jar Show is out Jan. 31 via Snack Bar/Megaforce/RED.
