Leeroy Thornhill announces memoir: ‘Wildfire: My Ten Years Getting High In The Prodigy’

The Prodigy.It was confirmed today (May 1) that White Rabbit had acquired the book, titled Wildfire: My Ten Years Getting High in the Prodigy, which is set to be released by the English DJ and music producer later this year.The artist is best known for his time as a member of The Prodigy, which spanned from 1990 to 2000, and in the memoir, he will recall what life was like to be part of the group during their first decade. It will also come fully illustrated with previously unseen photography – starting from their earliest raves, and creating a visual journey up until their shows in the late ‘90s, by which point the band were one of the biggest on the planet.“Rave pioneers whose sound also encompassed hip hop, punk and rock, The Prodigy arguably had as much influence on contemporary pop culture as the Sex Pistols and these extraordinary images from Leeroy’s personal archives capture the wild energy, ecstasy and abandon from the moment they dropped their first hit ‘Charly’ through the three albums which became the ubiquitous soundtrack to the decade: ‘Experience’, ‘Music for the Jilted Generation’ and ‘Fat of the Land’,” read a press release about the memoir.Wildfire will be published by White Rabbit on September 12, and available in hardback, ebook and limited edition variants.
