Rock is Lit:
The first & only podcast devoted to rock novels!
“I really tried to create a band that I would love, if they were real”— Taylor Jenkins Reid, author of Daisy Jones & The Six
Fiction writers have long been seduced by the anarchy, defiance, and raw power of rock ‘n roll, creating stories about music, the people who make it, and the characters who love it with the same intensity as the most ambitious concept albums. But until Rock is Lit first aired in September 2022, there had never been a podcast devoted to this art form—the rock novel—and the show remains a singularity. In its third season the show was named 2024 American Writing Awards Podcast of the Year in the categories of Music and Arts.
Tune in and make the pilgrimage to literary rock and roll Mecca.
Rock is Lit Confidential:
Also tune in to Rock is Lit’s sister show, Rock is Lit Confidential for stories about true crime and all things pop culture. Only on YouTube.

‘Searching for Jimmy Page’
Book Trailer
“Within this engrossing rockin’ tale, Hallberg captures the mysterious compelling enigma that is Jimmy Page.”
— Pamela Des Barres, ‘New York Times’ bestselling author of ‘I’m With the Band: Confessions of a Groupie’
"In her wondrous first novel, Christy Hallberg gives us a mystery, a mother-daughter love story, a paean to rock and roll, and a window into the culture of eastern North Carolina, all joined seamlessly by the elegance and poetry of her writing. It’s a book that begs to be read twice, first to find out the true story of Luna’s parentage, and then again, immediately but more slowly, to savor the beauty of the language."
— Liza Wieland, author of ‘Paris, 7 A.M.’, named one of The Best Books by Women of Summer 2019 by ‘O, the Oprah Magazine’
“I purchased this book for my husband. He's a huge Zep fan. Me? Honestly not so much. But I peeked, got hooked, and refused to turn it over until I had finished reading. Now he's reading it and loving it, and I'm left pondering the larger tale. Sure, the band... but not really. Part coming of age, part mystery, part historical fiction... certainly cross genre and beautifully written; the story is also slightly haunting in the best possible way. Highly recommended.”
— KJ Fieler, author of ‘Shadow Runner’, host of Writer 2 Writer YouTube show
