Jake La Botz, songwriter, meditation teacher, and actor (True Detective, Rambo, The Grace of Jake), has added “fiction author” to his resume. His debut book, Your Place in This World, a novella and story collection, will be released April 14th via the University of Wisconsin’s award-winning Cornerstone Press.

2026 also marks the 20th anniversary of La Botz’s infamous and unconventional Tattoo Across America Tour where he performs solo at tattoo shops throughout the U.S.

La Botz will be reviving the tattoo tour to perform his patented "gospel-noir" tunes and to read tales from his new book, but this time as an international event:

The Tattoo Across the Globe Tour.

Early notices on La Botz’s book:

“Jake La Botz writes like the bastard spawn of Denis Johnson, Hubert Selby, and Flannery O’Connor…haunting and deep.”—JERRY STAHL author of Permanent Midnight

“Fierce and kinetic, La Botz ferries us through his collection with the precision of someone who’s lived every note, every scar, every song.”

—MEG TUITE, author of Planked by the Abyss

“Your Place in This World has an emotional depth and street-smart verisimilitude reminiscent of works from writers like Saul Bellow. . . . An absolute feat of a debut.”

—DANIEL PEÑA, author of Bang: A Novel
