Blink-182‘s Mark Hoppus has announced the details of his new book entitled ‘Fahrenheit-182: A Memoir’.
Co-authored with music journalist Dan Ozzi, it is described as “a story of what happens when an angst-ridden kid who grew up in the desert experiences his parents’ bitter divorce, moves around the country, switches identities from dork to goth to skate punk, and eventually meets his best friend who just so happens to be his musical soulmate.”
“Bassist, songwriter, and vocalist for renowned pop-punk trailblazers blink-182, Mark Hoppus, tells his story in ‘Fahrenheit-182’. A memoir that paints a vivid picture of what it was like to grow up in the 1980s as a latchkey kid hooked on punk rock, skateboards, and MTV; Mark Hoppus shares how he came of age and forms one of the biggest bands of his generation. Threaded through with the very human story of a constant battle with anxiety and Mark’s public battle and triumph over cancer, ‘Fahrenheit-182’ is a delight for fans and also a funny, smart, and relatable memoir for anyone who has wanted to quit but kept going.”
The book will be released on April 08 2025 via Dey Street Books. Pre-order it now fahrenheit182.com.
