Coconut Records


Fueled solely by the existence of Rushmore, I continue to follow and support Jason Schwartzman in any and all of his post-Rushmore endeavors. I even own the I Heart Huckabees dvd, so you know I'm serious.

For a long time Jason was drumming in a band called Phantom Planet who had a hit song called "California" and some other pretty good tracks too. He then left the band to act but has since regained his passion for music and demonstrates this by performing in a solo act he calls Coconut Records, which released its second LP, Davy, this week. So go check out Coconut Records, you'll be surprised by Mr.Schwarzman's style. He's gotten some high praise from reviewers I respect and some comparisons to bands you may recall from years past. Davy is currently streaming in full on his myspace page.

**Fun Facts: Jason's mom is Talia Shire, who you may know better as Adrian from the Rocky movies. Also, his uncle is Francis Ford Coppola and two of his cousins are Sophia Coppola and Nicolas Cage.**
