Ben Gibbard (Death Cab for Cutie) and Jay Farrar (Son Volt) will continue their Jack Kerouac adventure by literally taking it on the road in October with a touring band comprising Nick Harmer (Death Cab), Mark Spencer (Son Volt) and Jon Wurster (Superchunk).

The collaboration between the two singer-songwriters began almost two years ago when the pair linked up to record the soundtrack for the documentary ‘One Fast Move or I’m Gone: Kerouac’s Big Sur.’ The album boasts 12 original songs based on Kerouac’s prose from his 1962 novel ‘Big Sur.’ Both the album and the film will be released on October 20.
