Devendra, Xiu Xiu, MMJ Contribute to Art Book

Kati Llewellyn reports:
Those tissues coated in your favorite celeb’s snot can be thrown in the trash now, because there’s a better, less germy way to gain access to the intimate, behind-the-scenes lives of rock stars.

Penny-Ante’s Book #1 is a gargantuan 300-page collection of interviews, artwork, short stories, photography, letters, discarded lyrics, poetry, and more, from a slew of indie and folk luminaries.

Six pieces by Devendra Banhart are featured, as are a short story entitled "Our Runner in Buffalo" by Jim James of My Morning Jacket, poetry and art from Xiu Xiu’s Jamie Stewart, three pages of artwork/writings by Ariel Rosenberg (aka Ariel Pink), and a collage by the Germs’ Don Bolles. Josephine Foster, Marissa Nadler, Richard Swift, Tarantula A.D., Daedalus, David Greenhill of the Double, Slumber Party’s Aliccia Berg, 7 Year Rabbit Cycle, Allen Karpinski of the Six Parts Seven, and more also contribute.

For the time being, Book #1 can be picked up at Amoeba Records’ Hollywood and Berkeley locations, as well as Penny-Ante’s website. Arrangements with other distributors are in the works.
