Ben Gibbard Pens PASTE Magazine Cover Article
Ben Gibbard wrote the cover article for this month's PASTE Magazine, Issue #42. 
"Late last summer, Death Cab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard retreated to the rustic California town of Big Sur to write songs for his band's new record, and to commune with the spirit of his idol Jack Kerouac, who'd visited Big Sur almost a half-century ago. For this essay, we sent Gibbard back to his cabin in the woods to meditate on life, art and solitude."
The article is available on PASTE’s website as well as newsstands.
