DESCRIPTION:Author and artist Dmitry Samarov talks about and shows slides of art from 
 his new book Music to My Eyes. Samarov has written for The Chicago Tribune, 
 The Chicago Reader, and more; in Music to My Eyes he turns his eye and pen 
 towards the musical stage, sketching and describing a host of independent 
 musicians he’s seen, crossed paths with, offered sofa space to, and taken 
 out to breakfast over the course of the past few decades. From well-known 
 names like Nick Cave and Mission of Burma to lesser-known greats like Bill 
 MacKay and Condo Fucks, Samarov draws haunting portraits of artistry at the 
 fringes of (and off the edges of) the mainstream, while also offering 
 poignant and memorable essays not only about their work, but about 
 musicianship and art, creativity and commerce—the perils of selling out, 
 and the dangers of never doing so, and above all else, the thrill of 
 creating something new. A love song and a lifer’s lament, Music to My 
 Eyes is an exquisite tribute to the trials and triumphs of independent 
 music. \n\nDmitry Samarov was born in Moscow, USSR in 1970. He immigrated 
 to the US with his family in 1978. He got in trouble in first grade for 
 doodling on his Lenin Red Star pin and hasn't stopped doodling since.\n\nHe 
 has exhibited his work in all manner of bars, coffeeshops, libraries, and 
 even the odd gallery (when he's really hard up). He paints and writes in 
 Chicago, Illinois. He is the author of Where To: A Hack Memoir.\n
