Part memoir, part oral history, Poets and Dreamers: My Life in Americana Music traces Tamara Saviano’s remarkable journey through the rise of the Americana music genre. Spanning more than three decades, Saviano unfolds the story of Americana—country music’s bohemian cousin—from her unique perspectives as a journalist, historian, Grammy-winning music producer, filmmaker, and artist emissary.
"A brave and inventive spirit, Tamara Saviano has created a thrilling and affectionate chronicle of the Americana phenomenon that she is uniquely qualified to deliver. Hers is a view from the inside--rich, authoritative and always honest."—Michael Streissguth, author of Johnny Cash: The Biography
