The LAist blog mentions a book-signing tonight by Justin and Melissa Gage for the new travelogue "Memphis and the Delta Blues Trail" at the Stories book shop in the Echo Park district of Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Times music blog has an interview with Justin Gage, who hosts the popular Aquarium Drunkard music blog, hosts radio programs on Sirius XM and Little Radio, and runs the indie record label Autumn Tone. Melissa Gage is a former travel editor for CitySearch who works as a freelance writer and screenwriter.

Here's an excerpt from the book's promotional blurb:

From Beale Street's barbecue, blues, and rock 'n' roll to the city's five-star dining and lodging, Memphis is a monster mecca of American music and more. The A-side is world-famous attractions and the flip side has funky shops, historic sites, and gold record legacies.
