Vedder, Johnson sing for surf soundtrack

By Jonathan Cohen Wed Sep 20, 3:38 AM ET

NEW YORK (Billboard) - Previously unreleased tracks from

Jack Johnson and Pearl Jam frontman
Eddie Vedder
will see the light of day on the soundtrack to the Johnson-spearheaded surfing documentary "A Brokedown Melody."

The album is due November 14 via Johnson's Brushfire label; the film, which was released on DVD last year, will see theatrical release in November.

Johnson's contributions are the tracks "Home" and "Sung," the latter featuring Matt Costa and Zach Gill. Also included is an acoustic version of "Breakdown," which Johnson wrote while traveling to Chile for a 2001 surf trip with his childhood hero, Gerry Lopez.

Vedder offers the ukulele track "Goodbye," which he first performed at a March 15, 2002, solo show in Los Angeles. "A Brokedown Melody" is rounded out by previously released tracks from Kings Of Convenience, Built To Spill's Doug Martsch, the Beta Band,

M. Ward and Costa.
