The ladies from Butcher Babies are amazing front women and talented beauties. Carla Harvey will be releasing her upcoming novel, Death and Other Dances on August 25th in select bookstores as well as Amazon, Amazon Europe, and Kindle.

This semi-autobiographical work tells the story of Autumn Franklin – an awkward, biracial Detroit native – that is disconnected from her peers at an early age because of her background. When Autumn’s young parents divorce, she becomes even more withdrawn, yet survives the cards that she’s been dealt by relocating to the alluring City of Angels, where she has but one goal: to find herself. Struggling to make solid connections with those around her, Autumn swallows her reservations and pushes limits to the extreme as she transitions between a drastic career change: from the bowels of the adult entertainment industry to her rebirth as a mortician. There amongst the dead, she learns what it is to live, love, and to allow others inside, finally landing in the most comfortable place of all: her own skin.

In addition Carla will be holding a Book Release Party along with book signing and reading on August 28th at 7 pm at Los Angeles’ Book Soup.

We are excited to catch Carla with the Butcher Babies as they return to this year’s Monster Energy Aftershock Festival. After Aftershock, they will be heading out on their headlining tour which they are calling, No One Can Hear You Scream Tour. It is set for fall with dates starting September 27th in Scottsdale, AZ at Pub Rock and continues into late October.

We just had the awesome time covering the Butcher Babies when they stopped into the Regency Ballroom for the Golden Gods Tour with Black Label Society. You can read more about that here: Butcher Babies at Regency Ballroom. Their headlining tour features another great band Anti-Mortem which I have been waiting to catch live! They will also be performing at the Louder Than Life Festival in October. In addition, the Butcher Babies have been added to the Soundwave 2015 Festival in Australia!
