Life's a Good Gig: A Gringo Musician's Journey into the World of Latin Music

Life's a Good Gig takes us on an international romp from the ultimate groove to the infamous gig from hell with a band of brothers like no others, some cool cats, some downright deadbeats. It's Jimmy Buffet gone Bill Bryson.

Musician/adventurer John Cain, like chef Anthony Bourdain, samples each musical genre like a savory stew, and shares thecreative process from the ridiculous to the sublime -- from the dubious singing dog to x-rated song lyrics to an unimaginable code of professional ethics.

Cain explores the mysteries of music and life in this well-crafted memoir of his musical sojourn. Jump on the bandwagon and enjoy the ride!
