Best known for co-founding the early punk duo Suicide, Alan Vega lived a complex and labyrinthine life, driven by a desire to express himself uncompromisingly through art. From his first sketch in art class at Brooklyn College to the 2021 release of the album Mutator five years after his death, Vega continues to shock and inspire.
This first-ever biography of Vega tells the story of the man's life and art, beginning with his early attempts to live a "normal" life and his epiphanic encounter with Iggy Pop in 1969. Although becoming a performer on stage had been at the bottom of Vega's list of lifetime ambitions, Iggy changed his mind: he needed music to truly express his vision. Infinite Dreams goes on to describe Vega's many experiments across a variety of media, including the partnership with Marty Rev that became Suicide, which challenged audiences to look deep inside themselves and to not settle for distractions.
A raw but engaging exploration of a man whose artwork, music, and philosophy inspired thousands, written by award-winning author Laura Davis-Chanin together with Liz Lamere, Alan Vega's wife and long-term creative collaborator.
Laura Davis-Chanin's debut autobiography, The Girl in the Back: A Female Drummer's Life with Bowie, Blondie and the '70s Rock Scene received the ASCAP award for excellence in writing and was named one of the Top Ten Books in Music by Billboard Magazine, 2017. Her following book, I Am Michael Alago is about the music executive and renown photographer who is known for discovering the band Metallica. Her most recent publication, Infinite Dreams: The Life of Alan Vega follows the remarkable achievements of the artist and musician, Alan Vega with a Foreword written by Bruce Springsteen who was greatly inspired by Vega. Currently, Laura is finishing a novel entitled A Point in Time about a deadly crime in the church and a screenplay based on her first book.
