April March and Steve Hanft - Magic Monsters


April March and Steve Hanft (Los Angeles, CA/New York, NY)

[MP3] April March and Steve Hanft - Flashback Pt II

There is something innocently Parisian about April March's delicate voice and ingenious song writing. Maybe that's why her resume reads like a "Who Who's Of American Cinematic Pop."

April March has collaborated with the likes of Brian Wilson, Ronnie Spector, and Jonathan Richman. Her numbers have been the soundtrack to films by Quentin Tarrentino and Gus Van Sant.

If that wasn't enough to give you a mega-crush on this songstress how 'bout her early career as an illustrator working with Spider Man creator Steve Ditko, and as an animator for Ren and Stimpy and Pee Wee’s Playhouse. I know at least one blogger who's ears just perked up.

For her latest project March teamed up with Steve Hanft (A film and commercial director by day, musician by night) to release a delightful collection of classic pop. This record is as diverse and intriguing as the parties involved.

You can pick up April March and Steve Hanft's new album Magic Monsters on 180 gram vinyl now in Martyrs of Pop's eShop.
