TRINIE DALTON and STEVE KRAKOW this Saturday FREE in Chicago!

Saturday, January 27 at 8PM
Arthur Magazine and Drag City presents…
Trinie Dalton and Steve Krakow

Ms. Dalton, author of Wide Eyed (Akashic Books) and co-editor of the wonderfully weird Dear New Girl or Whatever Your Name Is (McSweeney’s) will read from her yet-to-be-finished novel. Her writing has appeared in Arthur, LA Weekly, Bomb, Nerve.com, Purple, and The Believer. When not playing guitar hero for reals in Plastic Crimewave Sound, Mr. Krakow writes, edits and draws the mind-expanding psychedelic pop hurricane called Galactic Zoo Dossier. Together, they will have an amicable chat about zines, weird Americas old and new, and other subcultural curiosities.

About Jay Babcock

I am an independent writer and editor based in Tucson, Arizona. I publish LANDLINE at jaybabcock.substack.com Previously: I co-founded and edited Arthur Magazine (2002-2008, 2012-13) and curated the three Arthur music festival events (Arthurfest, ArthurBall, and Arthur Nights) (2005-6). Prior to that I was a district office staffer for Congressman Henry A. Waxman, a DJ at Silver Lake pirate radio station KBLT, a copy editor at Larry Flynt Publications, an editor at Mean magazine, and a freelance journalist contributing work to LAWeekly, Mojo, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, Vibe, Rap Pages, Grand Royal and many other print and online outlets. An extended piece I wrote on Fela Kuti was selected for the Da Capo Best Music Writing 2000 anthology. In 2006, I was somehow listed in the Music section of Los Angeles Magazine's annual "Power" issue. In 2007-8, I produced a blog called "Nature Trumps," about the L.A. River. From 2010 to 2021, I lived in rural wilderness in Joshua Tree, Ca.
