Azul Morgan, a young Native / Indigenous woman is the next rock star to break. Trapped in M-town, Iowa during the “Next Seattle” Midwest Music Scene explosion during the aftermath of 9/11, she takes her guitar named Mocha and her composition notebook, The Bastard Chronicle, to write the greatest songs ever & form the perfect band. Through the chaos she finds her tribe outside her native tribal roots in two amazing dudes, Rick, a womanizing drummer/singer, and Jesus, a cross-dressing guitarist. The three find the musical chemistry they’ve been looking for. Their unique new band are poised to take over the world-at-war. Azul writes about it all in The Bastard Chronicle, in her hilarious voice, as her past, present, and future collide in a coming-of-age story never told before in an era of the music scene when anything was possible.
Life Belongs to the Loud is a coming-of-age literary fiction novel that combines elements of traditional Native American, contemporary, and the epistolary with attitude. The story includes Native Indigenous storytelling and is set in the days after 9/11.
Forrest Lonefight is a musician, songwriter, artist, union member blue-collar worker. He is a Native American from the Meskwaki Tribe of the Sauk & Fox of the Mississippi in Iowa. He is also a member of the three affiliated tribes: Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara. Lonefight calls Des Moines, Iowa his home.
