Description

Joe Pernice will hit the road for about a dozen dates with a special show that combines music with prose, in support of the release of It Feels So Good When I Stop (Novel Soundtrack), which is a companion piece to his debut novel It Feels So Good When I Stop. The record (CD and digital download) will be released on August 4 on Pernice’s own Ashmont Records, and the book will be published August 6 by Riverhead Books, a division of Penguin.

According to Pernice, “Though the book is not explicitly about music, there are quite a few cover and fictional songs mentioned, so I thought it would be a cool idea for me to record some of those songs and release them, as a soundtrack album to the novel.”

Rather than do a reading-only tour for the book and a music-only tour for the album, Pernice decided to mash the two together, and combine reading sections of the book with performing songs from the book/album.
