Ross Art Museum

Professor Sean Kay will discuss his new book, “Rockin’ the Free World!: How the Rock & Roll Revolution Changed America and the World,” at a reception and book-signing from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Jan. 27 Ohio Wesleyan’s Richard M. Ross Art Museum, 60 S. Sandusky St., Delaware. Books will be available for purchase during the event, which is free and open to the public.

In a new Huffington Post review of his book, writer Ronald Tiersky states "Kay has street cred to write about the music and about its influence in society and politics. The book is based on dozens of interviews with musicians and journalists, but also some of the people running the business side of rock and roll, whose commercialization of the culture in general has inevitably affected rock and roll."
