James Murphy Developing His Own Espresso Blend?
This has been a great month for coffee-drinking indie-rockers. First, Bonnie “Prince” Billy announced that he had launched a coffee through Drag City. Now former LCD Soundsystem’s James Murphy is working on his own espresso blend, New York Magazine reported.
Although the project seems to be in its infancy, the songwriter is at least somewhat involved so far.
“I can’t talk about that because I’m still in negotiations,” Murphy told the magazine. “I love that we’re here and talking about a film, but I’m like, ‘I can’t really talk about the coffee.’”
The article added that Murphy is set to take a training course with “the world champion” of roasting, a birthday gift from his girlfriend. You can take a look at the article here and check out the preview to a film based around LCD Soundsystem’s last show here.
