TV On The Radio man producing Scarlett Johansson album?
Yahoo! Music, Aug 2, 2007 4:00 pm PDTDave Sitek of TV On The Radio is producing an album for Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson, it's been reported.
Johansson has already spent over a month in a Louisiana recording studio working on the material which also features members of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Celebration, according to Pitchfork.
The actress's sound is "avant garde" and "very Marilyn Monroe" says Dockside Studio owner Steve Nails, and he reckons it could even go on to win a Grammy.
Johansson famously appeared onstage with the Jesus & Mary Chain for the song "Just Like Honey" at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival earlier this summer, and other reports say that she has also been working on an album of Tom Waits covers.
Meanwhile, Sitek recently completed work on the forthcoming album from British band Foals.
