MOLDY PEACH EYES SESAME STREET SOUNDTRACK

Former THE MOLDY PEACHES star KIMYA DAWSON is set to write music for legendary children's TV show SESAME STREET. Dawson, whose music with The Moldy Peaches has received a lot of attention following its use on the soundtrack of recent Oscar winner Juno, is in talks with TV bosses to compose and record songs for Sesame Street. She tells Billboard.com, "I might do some music work with (Sesame Street), which is like my dream. I'm a kid of the '70s, and I definitely grew up with Sesame Street - the old Sesame Street. I'm just a huge, huge fan." And Dawson insists she is the perfect candidate for Sesame Street as she's just finished recording a new album of children's music, Alphabutt. Describing that disc, Dawson adds, "I think the songs are really free, which is a little different from a lot of other kids music I've heard. And I think kids will connect with it, musically, because it's actually kids playing. It's really free and kind of wild."
