I Am Mine

Written by: Eddie Vedder
Narrated by: Eddie Vedder

Publisher's Summary

In the summer of 1990, Eddie Vedder left the surf and sun in San Diego to join a group of friends working to put a new band together in the Seattle underground. Within months, they were anything but underground; they’d found their lead singer, and Vedder went on to lead Pearl Jam on a global takeover of ‘90s culture. In this latest edition of Audible’s Words + Music series, Vedder dives deep, reflecting on a life at the intersection of art, sensitivity, and masculinity.

One of the best-selling artists of all time, Vedder is characteristically honest about the challenges of remaining authentic in the face of staggering success. He delivers a raw, emotional story on the perils and joys of fame and friendship, passing on the option of dishing out tales of rock and roll hijinks. Now you can hear his take on the power of accountability and what it takes to keep the creative flame burning as a father.

Vedder's highly anticipated new album Earthling will be available on February 11 via Seattle Surf/Republic Records.

best no dollars I've ever spent

it really digs into your soul to hear someone who inhabits such a high station in rock history to speak so humbly and so honest about the road he's been down. I just wanted to run into Eddie on a beach sometime and share a fire some laughs some stories and a few songs and thats what this felt like to me. he's a fucking star in the right ways. much love Eddie, glad you made it through so far brother

Soul touching

I fell in love with Eddie Vedder all over again listening to him in this audiobook. His words. His insights. Whether he’s playing with Pearl Jam or solo his voice hits me in my soul

I Am Mine - Eddie Vedder

So wonderful to listen to Eddie talk about Pearl Jam during the early years, how the band was formed, the ups and downs of success and fame, and the inspiration behind some of their music. Most profound for me, as a writer, were his thoughtful insights about creativity and his writing process. I related so much to his thoughts about creativity fuelled around trauma. As a longtime fan, listening to him both speak and sing is sublime.

A glimpse into gratefulness

I’ve been a fan of Pearl Jam and Eddie Vedder for years and this small glimpse into Eddie’s gratefulness for his life, his band, his fans and his family has cultivated my gratefulness for him as a true creative power and just a decent, good human being.

Interesting

"In their own words" is so much more informative and entertaining. It was so nice to hear his opinions and history and to be able to listen to the songs as well was nice.
