Michael Cera Releases Indie Folk Solo Album

You may know Michael Cera from his acting in movies like Juno, and Superbad, but he’s also a musician.  He sang backing vocals and played mandolin on Weezer’s 2010 album, “Hurley“.  He also played bass for indie-rock supergroup Mister Heavenly.  Michael surprised a lot of people by creating songs with the GarageBand software and released an indie folk album last week.  Cera said in an interview thursday…

“I would record a lot of the songs in the middle of the night just at home. I never thought anyone would ever listen to them.” “It’s really nice that people are paying any attention to it because there’s a lot of stuff to listen to.”

Not many people knew Michael even dropped his 18 song album “true that” on Bandcamp on August 8th, until his buddy Jonah Hill tweeted a link on Wednesday.
