Synopsis

Album Description
Josie Cotton walked away from the music industry at the height of her career. Now she's back, with a new band and album, "Movie Disaster Music". Gaining instant notoriety in the early `80s by way of the infectious and controversial hit "Johnny are you Queer," Josie Cotton seemed to have it all. Despite the taboo subject matter, the song became ubiquitous on modern rock radio and catapulted it's singer to stardom. Elektra Records didn't know how to handle the controversy (how times have changed!) and after a host of missed opportunities and two albums (1982's "Convertible Music" and 1984's "From the Hip"), Josie's moment in the spotlight seemed to have passed. Now comes "Movie Disaster Music." Years in the making, this labor of love assembles a host of musicians and producers including Paul Roessler (Screamers, Nina Hagen), David McConnell (Elliot Smith, Wilco), Kenny Lyon (Lemonheads, Los Super Elegantes), Patrick Warren and Michael Lockwood (Aimee Mann, Fiona Apple) and Shon Sullivan (The Eels, Eliott Smith, Neil Finn) among others, to explore her songwriting skills in daring and exciting new ways. Always a great presence and voice, Josie Cotton shows her new colors on this album; a mature artist with a fresh vision, still challenging convention after all these years.
