Singer-songwriter Pete Yorn's 2009 is shaping up as
a very busy year. After his fourth album "Back and
Fourth" hits stores on June 23, he's scheduled to
release a Serge Gainsbourg/Brigitte Bardot-style
duets record with actress/singer Scarlett Johansson
this fall. Entitled "Break Up," the nine song set
is due September 8 via Atco/Rhino. The lead single,
"Relator," is available starting today (May 26) via
iTunes and streaming on the album's website.
While best known for her film work ("Lost In
Translation," "Vicky Cristina Barcelona," "Match
Point") Johansson released her first album
"Anywhere I Lay My Head" in 2008, under the
production helm of TV on the Radio's David Sitek.
The album featured 10 Tom Waits covers along with
one original and was met with mixed critical
reception. According to Nielson SoundScan,
"Anywhere I Lay My Head" has sold 19,000.
Yet the conception and recording of "Break Up"
predates "Anywhere I Lay My Head" by two years. In
a release, Yorn says "I was having a strange week
of insomnia and when I finally passed out, it came
to me in a dream. I woke up and the whole thing was
in my head, fully formed."
Only after playing the resulting recording efforts
for a few friends, was Yorn convinced to finally
release "Break Up." The album features eight Yorn
originals plus a cover of Big Star's "I Am The
Cosmos."
As previously reported, Yorn has been touring with
Coldplay as the opening act, with his run ending on
June 4 in Cincinnati, Ohio. It's unknown whether or
not he and Johansson will bring "Break Up" to a
live setting.
