Kimya Dawson

Friday, January 18, 2008

The Moldy Peaches song "Anyone Else But You" is a memorable track from the star-studded soundtrack to the film Juno. Kimya Dawson, co-founder of the indie band and a solo artist, talks about the role her songs play in an offbeat movie about teen pregnancy. And, she performs in our studio.

    Kimya Dawson wouldn't even make to to the judges on American Idol. NO Talent for composing and little talent for singing or playing

    Love you, Kimya...great music that really made the movie (Juno) work. What a strange comment below, with reference to American Idol (?)...if I were you, I'd plaster that across my next CD cover.

    I love the lo-fi style in the tradition of K Records...perhaps a a duet with Calvin Johnson is in the future?

    I saw Kimya Dawson tonight at the Bowery Ballroom. To say that she was the most self-indulgent, banal and irritating performer I've ever seen would be too kind. Ughhh.
