"A wonderful, interesting, crazy, desperately beautiful journey. . . . Alan's musicality seeps through his prose, giving every tale a touch of his poetic soul." --Jann Arden "Doyle is exuberant, irreverent, hilariously funny and a heart-on-the-sleeve Newfoundlander. As a writer, he's all that and a bag of chips . . . . Intimate, saucy and note-perfect. In his own words: Deadly." --Michael Crummey, author of Galore "Excellent adventure. I feel like I've lived another's life." --Russell Crowe "Where does Alan's sound come from? The Catholic side of Petty Harbour, ball hockey behind O'Brien's Fish Plant, Uncle Ronnie's band. He dreamed of being goalie for the Montreal Canadiens (I dreamed of being a rock star). He lives everything he does. That sound is here in his book." --Ken Dryden "A gentle, honest and often hilarious account of life in small-town Newfoundland. Stratocasters, goalie pads, skin mags and cutting tongues, Alan's charming and sometimes uproarious tale has it all." --Edward Riche, author of Rare Birds, "A wonderful, interesting, crazy, desperately beautiful journey. . . . Alan's musicality seeps through his prose, giving every tale a touch of his poetic soul." --Jann Arden "Doyle is exuberant, irreverent, hilariously funny and a heart-on-the-sleeve Newfoundlander.

Synopsis
From the lead singer of the band Great Big Sea comes a lyrical and captivating musical memoir about growing up in the tiny fishing village of Petty Harbour, Newfoundland, and then taking to the world stage. Singer-songwriter and front man of the great Canadian band Great Big Sea, Alan Doyle is also a lyrical storyteller and a creative force. In Where I Belong , Alan paints a vivid, raucous and heartwarming portrait of a curious young lad born into the small coastal fishing community of Petty Harbour, Newfoundland, and destined to become a renowned musician who carried the musical tradition of generations before him and brought his signature sound to the world. He tells of a childhood surrounded by larger-than-life characters who made an indelible impression on his music and work; of his first job on the wharf cutting out cod tongues for fishermen; of growing up in a family of five in a two-bedroom house with a beef-bucket as a toilet, yet lacking nothing; of learning at his father's knee how to sing the story of a song and learning from his mother how to simply "be good"; and finally, of how everything he ever learned as a kid prepared him for that pivotal moment when he became part of Great Big Sea and sailed away on what would be the greatest musical adventure of his life. Filled with the lore and traditions of the East Coast and told in a voice that is at once captivating and refreshingly candid, this is a narrative journey about small-town life, curiosity and creative fulfillment, and finally, about leaving everything you know behind only to learn that no matter where you go, home will always be with you., Singer-songwriter and front man of the great Canadian band Great Big Sea, Alan Doyle is also a lyrical storyteller and a creative force. In Where I Belong, Alan paints a vivid, raucous and heartwarming portrait of a curious young lad born into the small coastal fishing community of Petty Harbour, Newfoundland, and destined to become a renowned musician who carried the musical tradition of generations before him and brought his signature sound to the world.
