Based broadly on the subject of eating on tour, these entries each spin off into their own focused and exciting behind-the-scenes story, but all confirm what Pyenson and Bleeker suspected all along—food looms large in the lives of touring musicians, and it can be used as a gateway into understanding what going on tour is really like.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeatured contributors include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobin Pecknold (Fleet Foxes) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChris Frantz (Talking Heads) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatalie Mering (Weyes Blood) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMark Ibold (Pavement)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohn Gourley (Portugal.

Stories that deal with the best parts of touring: meaningful cultural exchange, hospitality-induced euphoria, and the opportunity to build relationships around the world. And the worst: loneliness, exhaustion, estrangement from family and friends, struggles with disordered eating, and unsteady access to medical care.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo the question isn’t, “How was tour?” It’s, “What do you eat on tour?” Like the best songs or meals, these conversations and essays evoke something central about the human experience. They show us all the ways that music and food bring us together, break us down, lift us up, and add color to our lives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alex Bleeker and Luke Pyenson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45919907381427,"sku":"nfb1788122538162","price":21.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/3558\/3667\/files\/taste-in-music-eating-on-tour-with-indie-musicians_1.png?v=1788122545"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.gardenpathgoods.shop\/collections\/books.oembed","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
