Jay Brannan
Singer-songwriter Jay Brannan sure enough knows how to get to a long-lived first impression; the 26 year old got his start in the indie flick "Shortbus," which featured more defenseless flesh than most XXX flicks.
Since the movie was released in 2006, Brannan has put his clothes back on and bared his soul on his first full-length record, "Goddamned," which was released on July 15 through his own label, Great Depression Records.
Fresh off this first tour, Brannan spoke to Billboard about his future plans and the importance of the DIY ethic.
Congrats on wrapping your first US tour. Was it all you hoped it would be? What lessons did you learn?
The tour was really fun, and I'm really happy with how the shows went off. I did ten cities all over the US, and my road manager took to calling it the luxury tour, because I was flying and taking trains to all the shows rather than roughing it in a van. It was still hard work, though. But the turnouts were great and it was gratifying to see people in different cities singing along to all the songs.
When you performed at the Highline Ballroom in New York, you talked almost having nonrecreational for everything yourself. Do you take label documentation now, or are you still backing the venture on your own?
I have no label support right now. I have never wanted to wait around and I like to just take the initiative and go after things I want. I'm a very opinionated guy and if I were to sign to a label, I feel like they might want to strangle those impulses. At this point, nothing I've seen looks like enough of a partnership to me. But I am open to considering offers; it depends on the terms of deal, of course, but I'm not closing myself off to any avenue. Doing all this by myself has given me a lot of leverage and more negotiating power, which feels good. And I'd love to not have to put everything on the old MasterCard.
You got your start in the indie film Shortbus. How has that helped you build your musical career, and how many people world Health Organization come to your shows now live you because of the movie?
It's a mix of both Shortbus fans and new fans right now. Shortbus really helped me, because the movie played all over the globe and it was like going on a world tour without ever leaving home. But since then I've really grown my online presence, and I'm meeting people who have never heard of Shortbus and just saw me on You Tube or something.
One theme of a lot of chatter has been your cover of NWA's "Straight Outta Compton;" you mentioned that people have sent you awful messages about it. Why do think some citizenry have such a strong response to you singing that call?
Well, most people do see the humor and the irony in the track. I heard Nina Gordon do it and I loved the way she sang it and the melody, and wanted to do my own version. I think that I do it with a mix of irony and humor and seriousness, and some people can't grasp the fact that all these complex issues in the song.
Lots of indie artists nowadays are licensing their songs to film and TV to make money and gain exposure. Based on your experience with Shortbus, is this something you�d consider?
I'd love for it to happen. It would have to be the right brand association, but absolutely, it's a goal of mine.
What are your plans for the fall?
I'm going international. My management company is setting up distribution of the record through some of their global partners, and I�ll be doing some tour dates in the UK and Europe. I'd also like to get back in to doing some acting.

Indiana Jones - Ford Waxes Chest For Charity
INDIANA JONES star HARRISON FORD has had his chest waxed for a new advertising campaign to promote awareness of deforestation.
The 65-year-old actor is seen gritting his teeth and wincing with pain as a wax strip is pulled from his torso.
But the stunt is all for a good cause as the 30-second ad has been filmed for Conservation International - an environmental campaign group - to help raise awareness of the effect of deforestation on global warming.
Ford is seen saying, "Every bit of rain forest that gets ripped out over there really hurts us over here."
And Conservation International boss Peter Seligmann insists the Hollywood star really went through with the waxing, and his pained expression was totally genuine.
He says, "I didn't have to talk him into anything. I was there when he filmed it. It really hurt. There's nothing about the expression on his face that was fake."
The short film mirrors a scene from 2005 movie The 40-Year-Old Virgin, which sees actor Steve Carell screaming with pain during his chest hair removal session.
