Before he was the electrifying frontman of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Anthony Kiedis was just a wild kid on the Sunset Strip—chasing chaos, chasing fame, and eventually, chasing redemption.
In Scar Tissue, Kiedis pulls no punches. From his early days scoring drugs with his dad, to stadium tours and overdoses, to spiritual awakenings and staggering relapses, this bestselling memoir is a raw, poetic chronicle of a life lived on the edge of art and annihilation.
Through addiction, fame, heartbreak, and healing, Kiedis doesn’t just tell a rock star’s story—he shows what it takes to survive it.
Unflinchingly honest and relentlessly human, Scar Tissue is a vivid ride through the wreckage and resurrection of a music icon who was never meant to fade.
