"Nighttiming" - Coconut Records


It seems these days it's becoming increasingly common for any actor or actress to record a few tracks and release an album. Sometimes it works (Zooey Deschanel teaming with M. Ward), and sometimes it doesn't (Clint Eastwood singing over the closing tracks of Gran Torino). The actor Jason Schwartzman, best known for his roles in quirky Wes Anderson movies, is no stranger to the music world. Previously the drummer for the band Phantom Planet (OC theme much?), Schwartzman launched his solo project Coconut Records in 2007 with the release of the album "Nighttiming." The song above comes from this album, though the band also released a new album in January entitled "Davy".

  1. This band rules. I've been listening to them on Pandora, had no clue it was Jason Schwartzman. Keep up the good work Mr. Humble Narrator.
