Publisher's Summary
Laura Jane Grace doesn’t defy rock ‘n’ roll. She defines it. In an inspiring examination of identity and creativity, the founder and frontwoman of notorious punk band Against Me! recounts the story of her extraordinary life, her rise to fame, and the painful but powerful moments that have led her to where she is now. Accompanied by stripped-down interpretations of her most personal and political songs - including “Walking Is Still Honest”, “I Was a Teenage Anarchist", and “The Ocean” - Grace traces her intersecting narratives as a punk rock anarchist navigating the mainstream music industry, and a trans woman struggling to live as her true self. “Being a musician,” she shares early on, “is just as much who I am as being transgender. I can’t change it.”
Delivering her story with painful honesty and wicked humor, Black Me Out invites listeners to not only hear Grace’s complicated journey through gender dysphoria, addiction, mental health, and artistic integrity, but recognize the universal pursuit of our authentic selves. Track the common journey with a modern icon.

Laura Jane never fails to entertain.
Beyond the performances, it's an abridged re-hash of Tranny. But being that is one of my favourite books of all time, I was pleased to hear the tales once more.
