Neko Case, a Grammy-nominated musician, will be conversing about her poignant and humorous new memoir that recounts her impoverished upbringing, intense aspirations, and essential friendships. This narrative encapsulates how art, music, and a strong bond with nature shaped her path to fame.
A widely regarded figure in the music industry, Neko Case is celebrated for her genuine nature, masterful storytelling, and clever humor, earning her a devoted fan base among critics and musicians alike. In her memoir, The Harder I Fight the More I Love You, Case shares her journey from feeling invisible as a girl "raised by two dogs and a space heater" in rural Washington to becoming a renowned international artist.
A Q&A session will follow, and pre-signed copies of her books will be available for purchase.
She will be joined in conversation by Sook-Yin Lee.
