TURNTABLE TUESDAY WITH AUTHOR ANNIE ZALESKI

A very special Turntable Tuesday is coming up. We’re thrilled to welcome Annie Zaleski to Speak of the Devil — Cleveland-based music journalist, New York Times bestselling author, and someone who has spent a very large portion of her life thinking, writing and talking about the music the rest of us have spent our lives listening to. Annie’s work has appeared in Rolling Stone, NPR Music, The Guardian, Time and the Los Angeles Times. She’s written books on Duran Duran, Lady Gaga, P!nk, Harry Styles, Taylor Swift, Cher, Beyoncé and more, along with liner notes for R.E.M. and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction essays for Duran Duran and George Michael. So yeah. She knows a few things about records. This Tuesday, though, Annie won’t be behind the turntable. She’ll be hanging out with us and talking about her books — particularly her recent Stevie Nicks in 50 Songs, a trip through the songs, stories, collaborations and wonderfully strange orbit of one of rock & roll’s most enduring figures. And we’ll get a little look ahead at what Annie has coming next: a new book about Dolly Parton. Stevie and Dolly. Two women. Two extraordinary careers. A whole lot of songs and stories between them. Which feels pretty perfect for Turntable Tuesday, really. Because this night has never just been about putting records on. It’s about why we keep listening to them. Turntable Tuesday with Annie Zaleski at Speak of the Devil. Records on the turntable. Cocktails on the bar. Annie talking music with us. This should be a really good one.
