Minnie Driver Goes Folk

October 7, 2004

Actress Minnie Driver is following in the footsteps of many of her fellow thespians (including Michele Greene and Kevin Bacon) who have combined screen time and record deals with the release of her album Everything I've Got in My Pocket. Driver actually began her career as a singer in London and wrote most of the songs on her album. The CD is being released on Zoe Records, a division of folk staple Rounder. She is set to appear on the David Letterman show tonight (10/7) and The View tomorrow.

Sorry you missed it, but I missed it, too! I was watching and the next thing I knew I was waking up on the couch and it was 2 hours later. Couldn't they just put these shows on while I'm awake? Driver's been making the rounds, so hopefully you'll have another chance. In the meantime, you can listen to audio snippets on the Zoe Records site here: http://www.minniedriver.com/index.php?id=audio.php
