Good news for Ben Folds fans…or Nick Hornby fans…or just fans of cross-media collaborations:
Alt piano-rocker/song-writer Ben Folds recently collaborated with veteran British novelist Nick Hornby on an album, Lonely Avenue, where Hornby wrote all the lyrics and Folds supplied the music. Wait…writers and musicians…together? How can that be? Luckily, here’s a video that explains the whole thing:
It’s cool to see these two worlds combine. So cool, in fact, that we’re giving away a very special prize to celebrate this union: You can win a copy of the album’s tablature signed by BOTH Ben and Nick, and a SIGNED copy of Hornby’s newest book, Juliet, Naked.
Very cool swag, indeed. All you need to do is take a picture of yourself holding either A) a Ben Folds album, t-shirt or poster, or B) A Nick Hornby book, (if you have a Nick Hornby t-shirt I will totally accept that too). Now that your true fandom is proven, just email that picture to BookPeople at feedback@bookpeople.com and we’ll do a drawing for our winner on Friday, Novemeber 19th. Good luck.
