Legendary
Musician Bob Mould to Publish Autobiography

Little, Brown and Co. has announced that musician Bob Mould, founder of the pioneering American punk band Husker Du, will write his memoir for publication in fall 2010. Michael Azerrad, author of the best-selling Our Band Could Be Your Life and Come as You Are: The Story of Nirvana, will collaborate with Mould.

The autobiography will delve deeply into Mould's life as a musician and his experiences with Husker Du, as a solo artist, and in his most commercially viable and successful work as leader of '90s indie rock kingpins Sugar. He will also discuss his internal struggle with his sexuality, his process of coming out as a gay man, and his foray into electronic and dance music -- including the popular Blowoff club events held nationwide.

"For many years, people have asked if and when I would write my autobiography," said Mould. "I have always looked forward to this point in time, where I could tell my stories, to answer the many questions about the music and the lifestyle, and how they inform the creative process. I have not been alone on this ride: friends and foes, mentors and associates, peers, lovers, all traveling by my side. The ride so far has been incredible, and I hope to do my memory right in documenting the journey." (Corey Scholibo, The Advocate)
