Margaret Cho Making Album w/ Jon Brion, Andrew Bird

It isn’t uncommon for a stand-up comic to record an album of skits and songs, but when comedienne Margaret Cho set out to make her upcoming “comedy-as-rock” album Guitarded, she got a bit more serious, tapping some of the best musicians in the business, The Daily Times reports.

“I have been doing music in my comedy for a few years now, and so this album is a compilation of things I have done as well as some new original songs I have written with tremendous artists like Andrew Bird, Jon Brion and Patty Griffin,” Cho said.

There is no release date set and that title, Guitarded, is still tentative, but we’ll keep an eye on this one. Catch a glimpse of Cho’s singing skills from a recent performance of “25 Random Things” at Brion’s favorite haunt Largo here or below:
