THE WRONG FERARRI

Written, Directed, and Starring Adam Green

The Wrong Ferarri is the first feature-length film starring, directed and written by singer/songwriter Adam Green.  Shot entirely with the video camera in his iPhone, The Wrong Ferarri is unlike any film you’ve ever seen — a 70 minute piece of work that boldly straddles the line between screwball tragedy, surrealist comedy, and performance art.

In addition to Green, The Wrong Ferarri features the talents of Macaulay Culkin, Devendra Banhart, Alia Shawkat (Arrested Development) Dev Hynes (Lightspeed Champion), Har Mar Superstar, Jack Dishel (Only Son, Moldy Peaches), BP Fallon, Cory Kennedy, Aleksa Palladino (Exitmusic, Boardwalk Empire),  members of the band Spacecamp, Adam Green’s mother, vocal work from Evan Dando (The Lemonheads) and more.

The Wrong Ferarri is available to stream and download for free from The Wrong Ferarri.com.

Shot over 8 months in 2010 and 2011, The Wrong Ferarri took Green across the globe, from Brooklyn to Prague to Venice and back again.  Centered around the possibly fictional character of Greenster – portrayed by Adam Green – The Wrong Ferarri is a fast-paced rumination on ketamine, romantic dysfunction, turning 30, having a pet/being a pet, and the parallel universe created by touring in a band.  The film’s script, which was written on index cards and handed out to the cast each morning before filming, reads a bit like the lyrics to one of Green’s songs, quick-witted, surreal, unflinchingly honest and hilariously poetic as only Green can be.

With seven solo albums and one art show of original paintings and sculptures under his belt, Green has become one of independent culture’s most consistently original and impressive voices.  As one half of New York City’s much-loved folk duo The Moldy Peaches, Green has been the recipient of widespread international acclaim; the twosome’s duet “Anyone Else But You” was not only featured prominently in the Oscar-nominated film Juno, but propelled the film’s soundtrack to platinum certification.  The Wrong Ferarri is another amazing feather in Green’s considerably full creative cap; it is the next Blair Witch Project, and will be, without question, one of the most memorable films you will see in 2011 EVER.

Adam Green’s latet album is ‘Minor Love’ which came out 2010 on Rough Trade /Rhythmethod in  NZ.

You can’t keep the genuine music down – hallelujah!

PRINCESS CHELSEA – “LIL GOLDEN BOOK”

“Lil’ Golden Book” will be a treat for all lovers of melody,
musicality and originality. Princess Chelsea has spent three years
getting this album just right and the result is an intriguing,
multi-layered album bursting with sweet synth-pop tunes. Though if you
listen a little closer, you might just hear something a little more
twisted and ominous coming to the surface…

Princess Chelsea is a female composer and bedroom recording artist.
Her early training was in classical music, but she gained her name as
a member of well-respected “circus punk” group, Teenwolf. She also
toured internationally as a member of the Brunettes during 2008 and
2009.

Rolling Stone has described Princess Chelsea’s music as “absolutely
sublime”, others have described it as “unique, eerie and ethereal” or
as if “Yann Tiersen composed the soundtrack to the next Wes Anderson
film”. However we at Lil’ Chief prefer to describe her music as “the
soundtrack to an old Disney movie meets Kraftwerk fronted by Enya in a
60s production of Les Mis… set in space”.

The album is a collection of stories about growing up as a teenager /
young adult in modern New Zealand and is given to us in the form of a
“Lil’ Golden Book”. Everyday situations of love, loss and petty
jealousies are presented as some kind of bizarre laymans fairy-tale.

On many of the tracks, Princess Chelsea’s lush, orchestral
arrangements are wryly juxtaposed with her dry, sardonic lyrics. This
is best displayed on “Overseas” (a duet with label mate Lawrence
Arabia) – a philosophical and slightly cynical take on the New Zealand
O.E. and truly one of the most original patriotic anthems we at Lil’
Chief have heard for a long time.

Princess Chelsea also duets with co-producer Jonathan Bree (The
Brunettes) in ‘The Cigarette Duet’, (a straight up 60s pop gem and her
most accessible moment on the album) – with a witty take on the issues
of cigarette smoking in a relationship.

Pretty pop-friendly ballads like ‘Too Fast To Live’ and ‘Yulia’ are
full of subtleties and surprises (a sly nod to the Dance Exponents,
quotes from an infamous 3 news interview) and are off-set by more off
beat and experimental arrangements like ‘Monkey Eats Bananas’ and
‘Caution Repetitive’.

The second half of Lil’ Golden Book maintains its melody-driven
musicality whilst venturing off into electronic territory with the
epic 70s sci-fi styled “Frack”, and glorious six-minute electronic
symphony “Goodnight Little Robot Child” – a high point on the album.

The closing track on the album “Ice Reign (Reprise)” – is an
instrumental lynch-esque reimagining of an earlier track (‘Ice Reign’)
and seems to tie the many musical elements presented on the album
(orchestral pop, classical, electronic, soundscape) back together
again for a glorious and beautiful finale.
