Months ago, speaker/writer/activist C.J. Campbell was on the cusp of having his first book, a memoir that has been 7 years in the making entitled: The Zen of Beard Trimming: Stories of Punk Rock, Poverty, and the Search for Peace published by Zombie Logic Press. He had successfully kickstarted the project and found a way to have the book 100% produced locally in his city of Rockford,IL but now he needed to do a book tour. The problem is C.J. thought the idea of a traditional book tour wasn’t interesting and was too self-centered, he wanted to watch others make their dreams happen too! Then by happenstance C.J. ran into P. Ryan Block, the founder of Independent Ear Records at their favorite coffee-shop and C.J. asked Ryan if he would be interested in collaborating on a unique book tour.
What they hatched is “The Love Will Not Be Defeated Tour”. C.J. will be performing live storytelling, sharing from his book and he asked Independent Ear to send their best to travel the road with him. Along for the ride Ashton Blake, a singer/songwriter from outside Louisville, KY who is fueled by the fantasy novels he writes and looks like he just stepped out out of a Led Zepplin show. Also coming along is the quirky indie-pop/folk band from Rock Falls, IL with a rock n’ roll pedigree in their blood known as The Defeated Royals
