In The Funk
Same country, similar name, wildly different band. I told you about The Pipettes before. Now, here’s a scrappy little threesome called The Noisettes with their single “Don’t Give Up.”
Confession time: I have to admit there may be an ounce of lady-lovin’ in my hardened, gay, Gyllenhaal-obsessed heart. There’s nothing that will grab my attention like a dynamic, wildly talented female rock star. And The Noisettes’ Shingai Shoniwa sure as hell fits that bill. She’s got this Ella Fitzgerald-meets-Courtney Love vibe going that I find hypnotic (check out her scream right after the guitar solo).
The band’s debut, “What’s the Time, Mr. Wolf?”, comes out April 17 in the U.S.

I thought of you as I was being useless today, watching Molto Mario while listlessly looking for a job. Mario Batali had Jake Gyllenhaal and the parents Gyllenhaal-Foner on his show as guests, and they were making gnocchi. It was incredibly adorable.
And just remember what Kinsey says. It’s a scale. Maybe you’re a 5.
