Dean Wareham is one of my indie rock heroes, part of the legendary Galaxie 500, followed by luna (one of my favorite bands of all time) and his current incarnation with wife former Luna band member Britta Phillips. In this AV Club feature an interviewer talks about random songs that come up on the shuffle of the interviewee's iPod. Here's the intro:
The shuffler: Dean Wareham, the former leader of indie-rock featherweight champs Galaxie 500 and Luna. Wareham's current project is Dean & Britta, a team-up with his wife and ex-Luna bandmate Britta Phillips; their latest album, Back Numbers, was released last year. The duo also scored Noah Baumbach's 2005 film The Squid And The Whale. Wareham's first book, a memoir titled Black Postcards: A Rock & Roll Romance, comes out in March.
