Eddie Vedder Readies Solo Album, Concert Documentary

Eddie Vedder’s stint as a solo artist continues. The Pearl Jam frontman has announced that he will release Ukulele Songs, which features both covers and originals plaid on the tiny four-string instrument, on May 31. Guests include Cat Power (“Tonight You Belong To Me”) and The Swell Season’s Glen Hansard (“Sleepless Nights”). Fans can pick up the lead single, “Longing To Belong,” at digital outlets.

May 31 will also see the release of the new concert DVD Water On The Road, which captures a pair of Vedder’s solo performances in Washington D.C. in 2008. The concerts feature Pearl Jam rarities, a cover of Bob Dylan’s “Girl From The North Country,” and Vedder’s songs from the Into The Wild soundtrack.
