Megadeth bassist to release debut book

'Unsung' which is the books titled will be Ellefson's first venture into the literacy world.

"As a musician, my past lyrical work has always been set to music. But, with this new book I set out to explore a new medium using both words and images as the canvas for an exciting new mosaic of storytelling."

The book is said to 'express the unique diversity of Ellefson’s levels of creativity, including showing the dark, light, inquisitive and inspirational sides to the musician.'

‘Unsung’ will be available for through Lulu.com, as well as major online retailers and local bookstores, by special order, following the initial release.
