About this listen

Before he was the charismatic singer of Black Veil Brides and an accomplished solo artist under the Andy Black moniker, he was Andrew Dennis Biersack, an imaginative and creative kid in Cincinnati, Ohio, struggling with anxiety, fear, loneliness, and the impossible task of fitting in. 

With his trademark charm, clever wit, and insightful analysis, Biersack tells the story of his childhood and adolescence and the discovery of the artistic passions that would shape his life, and his decision to move to Hollywood after his 18th birthday to make his dreams come true, even when it meant living in his car to make it all a reality. It's the origin story of one of modern rock's most exciting young superheroes, from building miniature concerts with KISS action figures in his bedroom to making the RIAA gold-certified single "In the End" and connecting with passionate fans worldwide.

I enjoyed every second of this book and discovering more about Mr Biersack. Having the author narrate this was perfection, true emotion expressed by the man himself. I feel more connected to the BVB front man, more a human being than an image on a screen and a voice in my ear. I would love for Mr Biersack to narrate more stories, I find his voice soothing.

This is a beautiful recollection of one of the most inspiring life stories I have ever had the pleasure to listen to. Thank you Andy for dedicating your early and adult life to the formation and development of Black Veil Brides and providing us as fans with such incredible music, whether it’s through Andy Black or BVB. You are a guiding light for so many people, me included, and hearing you talk about your life and experiences was an absolute pleasure! All I have to say is, thank you, thank you, thank you and to everyone wondering if they should read this book, DO IT!
