While there's no question that former Guided By Voices front-man Robert Pollard has enjoyed a fruitful solo career since his band disbanded in 2004, it's important to note that his former collaborators have also remained active.
Take, for example, Tobin Sprout, who was in the band for ten years. Since then, he's enjoyed a career as an exhibiting painter and just recently released Elliott, a creepy children's book that features Sprout's vivid paintings in a charming tale that he also wrote.
Books can be ordered through Sprout's site here, and if you act fast and get one of the remaining first editions it will come signed by the man himself. Prints of the book's paintings are also available here.
