MOCKSTARS
"Hilarious! It's The Inbetweeners meets Spinal Tap..." (Alex Marsh, author of Sex & Bowls & Rock and Roll)
< #1 Amazon bestseller: Biographical fiction >
Chris and George are best friends, and they want to be rockstars. Unfortunately, a childhood spent playing in the school orchestra and listening to Jimmy Nail has left them a little fluffy round the edges, and at the age of 23, their acoustic duo Satellite doesn't resemble Bon Jovi nearly as much as they'd planned. So how do two ordinary boys from the Home Counties go about taking on the cut-throat world of rock 'n' roll?
They're just going to have to fake it.
