Arkells frontman, Max Kerman, is a total try-hard. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, it's the entire crux of his new book, 'Try Hard: Creative Work in Progress,' which is dropping in book stores across Canada on April 22.A fixture on the Canadian music scene for the better part of the last two decades, it's safe to say that Max knows a thing or two about making it as a creative, an issue that he tackles through a series of essays and advice in the new book.Standing on the cusp of the book's release, Max finds himself in a particularly triumphant position because, while plenty of people over the years have suggested that he should try his hand at writing a book, it didn't always feel like a real possibility."I never thought I'd have the patience or the willpower to finish a book because so a lot of my life is a short spurt of creative ideas," Max tells me."It's like, I get an idea for melody, I'm going in...
