Joanna Newsom: interview/spread in PAPER
April 3, 2008
Joanna Newsom has graced the cover of PAPER magazine’s annual ‘64 Most Beautiful People’ issue. Besides some stunning photography (see above for a fine example), the fashion and lifestyle magazine does a fantastic job of combining biographical insight (”I had spent the past ten years focused on composition and I had felt so sure that I was so experimental and had never heard anything like this and was really excited about my own music”) and humbling levity (”But throughout our interview, Newsom sprinkles the conversation with an Office reference one moment and the fact that she’s memorized Marc Jacobs’s 2002 Spring and Fall collection the next”).
