back in stock! songwriting harpist joanna newsom returns with a new ep entitled 'joanna newsom and the ys street band'. the title, which is clearly inspired by butch walker and the let's-go-out-tonites and certainly not by anyone from new jersey, is a play on the singer's most recent long-player 'ys' (pronounced 'ease'). the three-song release includes the newly-penned 'colleen' and re-workings of two released tracks: ys' 'cosmia' and the milk-eyed mender's 'clam, crab, cockle, cowrie.' the ep was performed by joanna's road-tested band: kevin barker, neal morgan, dan cantrell and ryan francesconi, with joanna newsom singing and playing her harp. it was recorded and mixed in its entirety by tim green at the plant studios in sausalito, california. on drag city.
