  The ultimate front-row seat to Hootie & the Blowfish and Jim “Soni" Sonefeld’s breathtaking path from addiction to recovery. 
   
  For a time, there was no bigger band in the world than Hootie & the Blowfish—rock & roll’s unexpected foil to the grunge music that dominated the early ’90s airwaves. Jim Sonefeld, drummer and one of the group’s principal songwriters,  
  reveals their humble beginnings, meteoric rise, Grammy Award–winning musicianship, sudden fall, and ultimate rebirth—and opens his heart to readers about addiction, recovery, and faith. 
   
  Hootie’s debut album Cracked Rear View was one of the bestselling in the history of rock music. It saturated radio airwaves, television, and culture, and placed the quartet at the center of the American music conversation—for better and for  
  worse. Though Jim enjoyed the perks that came with fame—the parties, the relationships, the money, the drugs and alcohol—eventually it all became a camouflage that hid a deeper spiritual malady. As his life careened toward  
  disaster, he sought relief in twelve-step recovery, eventually devoting himself to a loving but by no means uncomplicated home life. 
   
  Swimming with the Blowfish is an unpretentious, emotional story of one man’s spiritual path to a more fruitful life. Jim’s journey is staggering and redeeming, and ultimately as comforting as your favorite flannel shirt.

  The Red Hot Chili Peppers were going to be a one-time act for a friend's album release party. 
   
   
    
  Forty years later the funk rock band is arguably one of the best known and the longest running in the United States. 
   
   
   
  Everything that happened in 1983 set the course for the rest of the band's career. The scrappy band quickly rose to scene-wide fame, playing all over Los Angeles, and gaining fans and media attention wherever they performed. Before the year was out, they had played approximately thirty shows, put together an early, beloved repertoire, recorded a blistering demo that secured them a recording contract with EMI/Enigma, and lost two of their founding members to a rival band. 
   
   
   
  Out in L.A. is an attempt at finding out exactly what happened during that first year and exploring what it is that makes the Red Hot Chili Peppers so compelling and fresh, even as they continue on their musical journey today.

  Hohokam Civilization - Desert...

  The Hohokam civilization, flourishing in the deserts of what is now southern Arizona, represents one of the most fascinating examples of ancient ingenuity in the American Southwest. Known for their advanced irrigation techniques, complex social structures, and distinctive artistic expressions, the Hohokam thrived in a harsh environment for over a thousand years. Their story provides valuable insight into human adaptability and innovation in response to challenging surroundings. 
  The origins of the Hohokam civilization are traced back to around 300 BCE, with their culture emerging as a distinct entity by approximately 600 CE. Archaeologists and researchers have found evidence of their presence in the Sonoran Desert, a region marked by intense heat and little rainfall. Despite these extreme conditions, the Hohokam were able to build thriving communities that relied heavily on farming, with maize, beans, and squash being staple crops. The Hohokam’s ability to create sustainable agricultural systems in the desert is considered one of their greatest achievements. 
  Central to the Hohokam way of life was their mastery of water management. They constructed a vast network of irrigation canals, some of which stretched for miles, to channel water from rivers into their fields. This water was crucial not only for agriculture but also for their communities' survival. The Hohokam’s innovative canal systems transformed the desert landscape, allowing them to cultivate the land and support large populations. These systems remain a testament to their engineering skills and ability to harness the natural environment for their benefit.
