An Indie Band’s Record-Breaking Music Tour: A Graphic NovelFrom
the indie band Pocket Vinyl and the artists behind the documentary
Drive. Play. Sleep. and the popular webcomic The Touring Test, this
hilarious artists’ graphic novel memoir chronicles a couple’s
road trip across the USA as they break a world record.A world
record smashing music tour through 50 States in 45 Days. Together,
Eric Stevenson and Elizabeth Jancewicz perform as the band Pocket
Vinyl, where Eric slams on the piano and sings while Elizabeth
creates a large oil painting on stage. In these artists’ graphic
novel, watch as they take on their biggest challenge yet: to tour
the whole nation in just 45 days, breaking the record for the
fastest time a band has played in all 50 U.S. states. A wild road
trip of performance highs, self-doubt lows, and determination. As
co-author Elizabeth Janceqicz says, “I knew that embarking on
such a monstrous adventure would provide me with stories to tell,
but I hadn't realized how much those stories would change me... In
retrospect, we learned so much: about how our art helps people, how
interconnected we all are, and how easily our minds can descend
into mental illness without us even realizing it’s happening.”

When he was inducted into the Hibs’ Hall of Fame on Eater Road in
2012, Eric Stevenson declared “This means everything to me. My
uncle founded the Bonnyrigg Hibs supporters’ club in 1949-50 and
I started going to games when I was seven”. This book traces
Stevenson’s fanatical interest in the club from a very young age
, his time as a left-winger wearing the number eleven green and
white jersey in the 60s, and the well-deserved recognition that he
has gained today.
