Scarlett Johansson Update

Pitchfork: Scarlett Johansson Works With Sitek, Yeah Yeah Yeahs: "Oh my god. As if it wasn't shocking enough that starlet Scarlett Johansson was working on an album of Tom Waits covers (read Tom's reaction here), and sang with the Jesus and Mary Chain at Coachella. Apparently, her album is being produced by David Sitek of TV on the Radio and features members of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Celebration!!!

According to Lafayette, Louisiana's Daily Advertiser, the Ghost World and Lost in Translation star spent '33 days in Maurice [Louisiana] recording her debut CD at Dockside Studio.'"

John Hammond, Jr. recorded an album of Waits covers entitled "Wicked Grin". I haven't listened to all of it yet. I haven't listened to "Bawler, Brawlers, blah blah blah" yet either.

Since I wrote that comment I have been listening to the Hammond album and it's good. Ahhh, the benefits of having a private office.
