La Volumes Jinns...

La Volumes Jinns is the solo project of…? Well I suggest you solve the anagram of the name to get the answer. Or you could of course choose the easy (and cheating) path and visit the Myspace page, where the answer will reveal itself. I’ve been granted permission to share the first two tracks recorded under the alias, which many a fan of Jeff Buckley should find very appealing. In what might be an attempt to play down expectations the artist himself calls the songs “rough versions” and he might be right that the songs could use another turn in the “production mill”. But at the same time one could easily fear that the instant lo-firm charm of these two lovely acoustic tracks could be jeopardized, if this happens. So leaving them as they are is probably my favorite option of the two. However the exact plans for the songs and the project in general seem rather dim at the moment (not sure if the artist has made up his mind himself), but I’ll sure keep you posted if more pops up in the future.
+ Chania
+ Barcelona or Anywhere But Here

The guitar in Chania is *exactly* the same as the waltz song Julie Delpy plays at the end of Before Sunset... Anyone know the connection? Just search "julie delpy waltz" on YouTube.

It's a pretty common change. You'll hear it in a Travis song too, just to set an example.
