    "Everything is art", a young Daniel Johnston is heard saying on a cassette tape recorder with fellow art students at Kent State University in 1980. He often kept a cheap battery operated cassette player running, recording his relentless song-making and chronicling events and stages of his artistic progression. For the mainstream music world, Daniel was an enigma. Many articles, documentaries, and books have taken on this question with varying success at making converts out of the skeptics. For the most part, to those who could see the worth of Daniel's expression, it was instinctive and immediate, a rare musical and artistic genius. His creative output in recent years is increasing, and his future is promising.

    Joining Johnston will be New York-based The Hymns whose latest release is 2008's Travel in Herds featuring "I Can't Be What U Want."
