AliHOST
mean,
FernHOST
I tried to get into Joanna Newsom, I think that's her name.
FernHOST
I couldn't do it.
AliHOST
This is kind of why I couldn't really get into Leonard Cohen.
Matt CarneyGUEST
I think it's just beautiful that like you can fill that space with your own experience with, you know, that might've been Elliot Smith for you.
Matt CarneyGUEST
That might've been Joanna Newsom.
Matt CarneyGUEST
It could be anyone coming in and just this moment feels so alive based on Meredith's very specific experiences that are being rendered through to the game, which is like auto fiction.
Matt CarneyGUEST
So it's not, you know, it's not her, it's not memoir, that kind of became a ongoing thing.
David PizarroHOST
all.
David PizarroHOST
And then it gave me a casting for The Sirens, and it said it should be Kate Bush, Bjork, and Joanna Newsom, which made Nikki very happy.
David PizarroHOST
Those are three of her favorites.
David PizarroHOST
Yeah,
Tamler SommersHOST
yeah, I don't know the other two well
David PizarroHOST
enough.
David PizarroHOST
You know Joanna Newsom from her role in...
David PizarroHOST
In Heron Bites, yeah.
James AcasterGUEST
Yeah.
James AcasterGUEST
Only Skim by Joanna Newsom.
James AcasterGUEST
I'd be lying if I said anything else.
James AcasterGUEST
I think it's 16 minutes.
James AcasterGUEST
The imagery that she conjures up in your head is just like so vivid and it's enjoyable to sit in and have those stories told to you.
James AcasterGUEST
Obviously, her performance, like her vocal performance on that entire album, the harp playing and the strings by Van Dyke Parks that he kind of arranged, they go together so well.
James AcasterGUEST
It is my favourite Joanna Newsom album.
James AcasterGUEST
I like all of her albums and I think she's a genius.
BizHOST
And it's all about indie rock's turn toward sincerity at this time.
BizHOST
And then on an even indier front, there was this kind of what was described as wide-eyed wonder of folk-inspired weirdos like Devandra Banhart, Animal Collective, and Joanna Newsom, all of whom were praised, however inaccurately, for their perceived purity and innocence.
BizHOST
And in this piece from 2005, the author focuses in on the artist Conor Oberst as a symbol of this movement.
BizHOST
And I think there's actually this really epic connection between Conor Oberst and his movement.
Hue WilliamsGUEST
And they were kind of really part of the, the, the resurgence or the popularization of, of that kind of acid folk thing.
Hue WilliamsGUEST
And they were content, you know, it was like your Joanna Newsom's and Will Odom and stuff, but Also, there was a lot of finding these records that did nothing at the time, who then that became really popular.
Hue WilliamsGUEST
I think I read a book, Some Kind of History of Acid Folk, and I think I probably found it through that.
Hue WilliamsGUEST
Not an original copyright.
ReggiePANELIST
And so everyone had all these poems that they'd spent ages looking through poetry books for.
ReggiePANELIST
And I just wrote the lyrics to Joanna Newsom's Sprout and the Bean Down.
ReggiePANELIST
And my tutor said that it was the best poem that she'd heard in a very, very long time.
ReggiePANELIST
And she would not stop grilling me on who this poet was.
ReggiePANELIST
And it was like, just Joanna Newsom lyrics.
ReggiePANELIST
And I was like, oh,
ValeriePANELIST
yeah, yeah.

And he does talk about actually, I think it's
Ian CohenHOST
Right.
Ian CohenHOST
Like even when you think back to Animal Collective or Joanna Newsom, Milk Eyed Mender or like Sufjan in Illinois.
Ian CohenHOST
that stuff annoyed the hell out of people when they heard it.
Ian CohenHOST
It should annoy the normies.
Scott LapatineSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Franz Ferdinand was one of the bands we probably wrote about most in 2004, and everyone seemed to love that album.
Scott LapatineSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It didn't seem that surprising when they broke out.
Scott LapatineSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Joanna Newsome, I think, also was 2004, and that maybe was a little bit more surprising.
Scott LapatineSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I mean, you know, such a classic album and a unique sound and point of view.
Scott LapatineSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
but the critical accolades were able to grow her profile in a way that I didn't really expect.
Jason DafnisHOST
Slip- slipping in here.
Jason DafnisHOST
I totally forgot that he's married to Joanna Newsom, which is like-
Harry MackHOST
Yeah.
Harry MackHOST
