Nellie McKay Splits With Sony Records

Songstress Nellie McKay has split with Sony Records. This comes as no surprise—during a recent Paste interview, McKay told contributing editor Amanda Petrusich, “I’ve been trying to get my label to drop me but they won’t. I’m serious, I want out so bad.”

When asked the reason for the breakup, McKay responded, “It ain’t no use to sit and wonder why. They kept the coffee pot, I got the dog.” She added, “All that matters to me is that I can continue to make irritating music which will baffle and enrage.”
