From choirboy to frontman of one of the biggest rock bands in history, Brian Johnson’s story is the ultimate backstage pass.
Growing up in a working-class English town, Johnson chased music with gritty determination, finding modest fame with the band Geordie—until life forced him back into the blue-collar grind. Then came 1980. After the tragic death of Bon Scott, AC/DC came calling.
Within days, Johnson was in the studio with the band recording Back in Black, the legendary album that would sell over 50 million copies and redefine rock.
In The Lives of Brian, Johnson recounts the wild ride with warmth, grit, and riotous humor, chronicling how he found his voice—and helped shape the sound of a generation.
