Joanna Newsom

[Fierce Critter]

I caught her when switching channels last night. She was on Jimmy Kimmel's show. She is this sorta elfin-looking girl, playing a full-sized harp, with a chain-mail headpiece and sorta medieval clothing.

She plays the harp and sings. Sounds like a 3-year old Bjork.

I was kinda mesmerized. Ordinarily, I can't stand that little-girl style voice, but it was so fascinating. I'd like to hear more by her.

There is information about her if you care to google.
