Jay Farrar and Ben Gibbard on KCRW

Jay Farrar of Son Volt and Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie seem like an unlikely pairing, but their shared appreciation for Beat writer Jack Keroauc lead them to write songs with lyrics taken from the 1962 novel, Big Sur. They’ll share their music live on Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.
