John Fogerty has announced that his upcoming memoir, Fortunate Son: My Life, My Music, will be release on October 6.

The former Creedence Clearwater Revivalfrontman says the book will be about his highs and lows during his personal and professional life.

"I'm excited to share my story and my life with you," he says in a statement.

"You're going to hear where it all started, my passion to become the best musician I could be.

You'll travel down some rough roads, but that road leads to something beautiful. My book won't be sugarcoated! It's all in there."
