Rock ‘N’ Pole: A Memoir

Rock ‘N’ Pole: A Memoir

I got naked so I could produce an album. Rock n Pole is the raw, hilarious, and unfiltered memoir of Aimee Bushong—an aspiring rock star who stripped to fund her music career and refused to give up her dream, no matter how sideways it got. By day, she fronted a gritty indie band. By night, she danced under blacklights and hustled lap dances in Denver’s sleaziest clubs—juggling guitar strings and g-strings, heartbreak and hangovers, hope and humiliation. Told with biting wit and brutal honesty, this is not a story about victimhood. It’s a story about survival, ambition, absurdity—and doing whatever it takes to make art in a world that doesn’t give a f—k. If you've ever chased a dream, defied expectations, or lived a double life just to keep the lights on—this book is for you.
