He was a member of the Byrds and founder and frontman of the Flying Burrito Brothers. He was best friend to Keith Richards and mentor to Emmylou Harris. And he revolutionized music, combining country and rock when the two were like oil and water. Gram Parsons may have been only twenty-six when he died in 1973, but he was already well on his way to becoming one of the most influential musicians of all time.
A collaboration between journalist Jessica Hundley and Gram's daughter, Polly Parsons, Grievous Angel is part biography, part visual scrapbook - a compilation of conversations and never-before-seen photos and unpublished letters, all interwoven with a retelling of Gram's tale.
Featuring dozens of interviews with everyone from Bright Eyes and Elvis Costello to Willie Nelson and Steve Earle, Grievous Angel is an exploration of how Gram's legacy has spanned the decades, still inspiring both his contemporaries and today's artists, thirty-odd years after his tragic death.
