Anya Marina’s ‘Satellite Heart’ Featured In ‘New Moon’

Posted on October 1, 2009 by popdirt
Anya Marina 'New Moon'

checked in with fans on her blog at MySpace on Tuesday (September 29), discussing her song ‘Satellite Heart’ being included in the new ‘Twilight’ film ‘New Moon’. The San Diego based singer songwriter tells readers:

A few months ago, I was asked by Chris Weitz (the director of the new Twilight movie (New Moon) to come in to his office to screen the latest Twilight movie, NEW MOON. I guess he’d heard my cover of T.I.’s “Whatever You Like” and really liked it. Naturally, I was thrilled. I heard all sorts of my favorite bands were being considered for the soundtrack (Thom Yorke, Death Cab, Grizzly Bear, etc). In fact, on the day of my own private screening, as I walked in, The Killers were making their way out.

Anya Marina Conflicted & Flustered By First Boob Signing Request

Posted on July 9, 2009 by popdirt

checked in with fans on her blog at MySpace on Thursday (July 9), offering a diary of her tour dates with The Virgins and a bunch of photos. On one of the stops, the singer songwriter tells readers:

Orlando, FL – The Social
The Virgins KILL in Orlando, playing one of their best shows of the tour. I take a couple of pictures and call the series “A De-Flowering at The Social.”

Also: today I have my first ever boob-signing request by a girl named Trisha. (My inner rockstar celebrates and my inner feminist raises an eyebrow…). I get so nervous signing that I actually write HER name on her own breast (which makes no sense) and to add insult to injury I misspell it “Tricia.”

Note to self: don’t use permanent marker when signing body parts.

Check out the entire tour diary and several pictures here.

The Evolution Of Anya Marina’s Chin Bruise

Posted on May 20, 2009 by popdirt

checked in with fans on her blog at MySpace on Wednesday (May 20), en route from Cheyenne, Wyoming, to Salt Lake City. The singer songwriter tells readers:

Today my chin bruise has flowered into a nice purple and grey mess. It looks like I’m making some kind of statement, so I opt against makeup and — as Lissy Trullie encourages me — I “just rock it.” Luckily, I’m in no danger of repeating said guitar injury, as the Virgins’ silky haired guitarist Wade MacGuyvered my strap problem with a “strap block.” This tiny rubber contraption costs under a dollar and quite literally could’ve saved my face from a week of ugly bruising. (Note to accident-prone and vain musicians everywhere: invest in strapblocks!)

Check out the entire message here and a prior video blog below.
