"Tales from the tour van are never bad if the band is good. Here Goes Nothing took me on a journey back to being young and out lost somewhere in the beauty of the gnarl. The road. I needed to read this book much more than I thought. It's the powerful prose with beer still on its breath that makes it incredibly impactful and real." -- Matt Mays, Juno Award-winning songwriter "Here Goes Nothing is a dizzying ode to the allure and the disillusionment of life on the road.

"Tales from the tour van are never bad if the band is good. Here Goes Nothing took me on a journey back to being young and out lost somewhere in the beauty of the gnarl. The road. I needed to read this book much more than I thought. It's the powerful prose with beer still on its breath that makes it incredibly impactful and real." -- Matt Mays, Juno Award-winning songwriter "Here Goes Nothing is a dizzying ode to the allure and the disillusionment of life on the road. In his second book, McGrath smashes open a decade's worth of bottled emotions. The grudges are toxic and the hangovers are abysmal but his vulnerable moments of clarity are worth the endured chaos." -- Leah Fay Goldstein, Juno Award-winning singer/songwriter of July Talk Told in two interwoven narratives that blur the lines between past and present, Here Goes Nothing explores the complex relationships that are both created and destroyed by the perpetual-motion engine that is the touring van. From confessional tales of saving friends and oneself from drowning in polluted lakes in Michigan to legendary liver-wrecking nights of excess and debauchery in Lisbon, McGrath comments on the corrupt and selfish music industry and the toll it takes on musicians as they blindly chase success. Here Goes Nothing is a gutsy story of how life on the road can bring a band together -- or tear them wildly apart. Seven full-length records, multiple continent-spanning tours, and a critically acclaimed work of fiction lay in the wake of thirty-one-year-old Eamon McGrath, whose fierce attitude and work ethic has led him to develop a career that could rival anyone twenty years his senior. He is based in Toronto, Ontario.
