It has been almost a year since Mike Henneberger released his mixtape memoir “Rock Bottom at the Renaissance.” Since its debut last summer, Henneberger’s raw story of managing mental illness and addiction has gained a ton of attention.
“Rock Bottom at the Renaissance” debuted at #1 on the Amazon New Release list in the Punk Biographies, Punk Music, Music Philosophy and Social Aspects, Mental Illness, Texas, New York City, and Suicide (yeah it gets dark) categories, and #4 in Pop Culture and #5 in Dating.
The story even captured the heart of actor and singer Tyler Posey.
“This book is literally my fucking life. We’re the same person in a different universe…” — Tyler Posey
Tyler Posey recorded the audiobook version of “Rock Bottom at the Renaissance” which dropped on April 27th. Click here to check it out!
In preparation for the audiobook release, Henneberger shared a 3-epsiode video series on YouTube, which includes interview clips with Tyler Posey and the full reading of Chapter 1 which includes an UNRELEASED JIMMY EAT WORLD RECORDING OF “23” from the band’s Phoenix Sessions. The Rock Bottom at the Renaissance audiobook is the only authorized way to hear that song as well as the the unreleased version of “Kill.”
