Wilco played The Wiltern on Friday night and Leslie joined them on stage for their lilting duet-duel, "You and I". This is the first time L. Feist and J. Tweedy have sung this song since they gathered around the recording studio campfire. Instead of twigs and marshmallows, instead of smoke and mirrors, in this video they are using microphones and stage lights.
Today is the day the new Wilco album gets downloaded to your record shelves.
Kevin Drew's short film The Water, starring Feist and Cillian Murphy, is winning awards all over the world. It's on tour.
The Water won Best Cinematography for a Canadian Short at the Worldwide Short Film Festival (Miroslaw Baszak) and another award at the Houston Film Festival. The Water was also just selected for presentation at the Portable Film Festival in Australia.
Honey, Honey, the Feist video featuring the work of the Old Trout Puppet Workshop (and directed by the lovely and inimitable Anthony Seck), is screening at The Los Angeles Film Festival on both Saturday, June 20th (7pm) and Sunday, June 28th (5pm).
You can purchase tickets for a screening here. You can buy tickets to Los Angeles everywhere.
The Water is a song by Feist, but now also a short film by Broken Social Scene's Kevin Drew. It stars Feist, Cillian Murphy and David Fox, and tells a chilling fairy tale, one which slowly (and quietly) thaws despite its snowy backdrop. You can watch the video here.
Pitchfork Media flew to Canada recently for an interview with Kevin and Leslie. You can find a link to this interview, as well as one with Cillian Murphy, all from this page.
Anthony Seck just won a Juno for Video of the Year for Feist's song Honey, Honey. Congratulations to Anthony, The Old Trout Puppet Workshop, and Feist. Here is a link to the winning video, and above is a great photo of Anthony accepting his award.
