‘Juno’ Soundtrack on the Shelves!

January 8th, 2008 in Actors, Celebs, Movie News -

coverart_297×297.gifRhino’s soundtrack to this weekend’s number two box office comedy “Juno” was released last month exclusively to digital outlets and has now reached #1 on SoundScan’s Digital Album sales chart. On the heels of the digital success, the “Juno” soundtrack CD arrives in stores today, January 8 — less than a week before the Golden Globe Awards. “Juno” received three nominations, including Best Picture.

The 19-track collection includes eight songs by Kimya Dawson, both as a solo artist and as a member of the groups The Moldy Peaches and Antsy Pants. Two Dawson-penned instrumentals make their debut on the Juno soundtrack, which also boasts songs from Dawson‘s 2004 album Knock-Knock Who? and her 2006 release Remember That I Love You. It was the film’s young star, Ellen Page, who suggested Dawson‘s music for the movie, and Page duets with costar Michael Cera on a cover of The Moldy Peaches favorite “Anyone Else But You” (which is heard in its original version as well). Dawson‘s other group, Antsy Pants, contributes a pair of tracks to the Juno soundtrack. The eclectic album also includes music by Buddy Holly, Cat Power, Mott The Hoople, The Kinks, Sonic Youth, Belle & Sebastian and Barry Louis Polisar.
