HighTunes: Weeds Scores Joan Baez, Other Crooners
In keeping with last season's nifty notion to have a different singer/group perform the title track, Showtime's
Weeds has lined up another roster of eclectic acts to serve up Malvina Reynolds' "Little Boxes." While
Randy Newman will kick things off with his own take on Aug. 13, other singers to listen for throughout Season 3 include
Joan Baez, (not Martin)
Donovan, ex-Spearhead front man
Michael Franti, the hip-hop band The Individuals,
Angelique Kidjo, the Latin band
Kinky, experimental rockers
Man Man,
Persephone's Bees,
the Shins and
Billy Bob Thornton.
