Synopsis:
What happens when a girl goes from special ed to double honors high school graduate with dreams of earning a University degree and being a film composer?
Well, she joins a metal band obviously, even though she's never listened to metal and barely knows how to play drums yet. All kinds of things happen when you say yes, especially when you jump the gun. During the brief period Sarah Noel was in this band, a whole lot happened. Everything you would expect to happen pretty much happened. Drama. Missing bassists. Drugs. Possessive girlfriends. More than one run-in with police. Chaos.
Sarah is trying to survive all this during a time rife with upheaval in all other aspects of her life--family, work, community college progress--all while trying desperately to achieve her big dream that is slipping farther and farther out of reach.
Taking place in LA in the mid-aughts, Drummer Girl: How I Became Metal is a memoir that is filled with humor, heart, millennial nostalgia, a dash of cynicism... but mostly humor, about what was unexpectedly the most significant experience to shape Sarah into the person she would become.
