"In this striking and thoughtful anthology, musicians Luke Pyenson (Real Estate) and Alex Bleeker (Frankie Cosmos) take readers on tour with a diverse lineup of inspiring indie musicians from around the world, sharing meals and travel experiences, peeking behind the curtain at this singular and singularly misunderstood way of life. Through original essays and engaging conversations with dozens of indie musicians representing several subgenres, scenes, and eras, food takes center stage in stories about being on tour and eating on tour, and how this basic human necessity can create a sense of community and interconnectedness in one of the most mobile industries in the world. Luke Pyenson and Alex Bleeker two inquisitive, well traveled indie rock musicians with backgrounds in food journalism, anthropology, and the hospitality industry-are your guides. Essays and conversations are based broadly on the subject of eating on tour, and while each spins off into their own focused and exciting behind the scenes story, 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"--
