In retrospect, the entire idea of a Sufjan Stevens Broadway musical feels both far-fetched and inevitable. Last year, director/choreographer Justin Peck and playwright Jackie Sibblies Drury’s Illinoise, an adaptation of Stevens’ 2005 classic Illinois, opened in Chicago. Last month, Illinoise came to New York. It’s currently running at the St. James Theatre, and it’s nominated for four Tonys, including Best Musical. Now, there’s an original cast recording on the way, and we get to hear two of its songs.

Sufjan Stevens: – “Jamila”
submitted by Nick Oct 29th 2013 06:00 pm (stereogum.com)
Sufjan Stevens estimates that “Jamila,” the dusty old four-track demo he posted to SoundCloud today, was recorded circa 1998 in tribute to his sister, a half-decade before Michigan rocketed him to wide acclaim. As such, it’s recognizable as Sufjan’s work but lacks the grace and grandeur he would later get ...

Sufjan Stevens: – “Take Me” (Demo)
submitted by Nick Oct 16th 2013 03:00 pm (stereogum.com)
Earlier this week, Sufjan Stevens was in the news for writing Miley Cyrus a silly grammar-nerd open letter, so it’s nice to see some actual new music — or new-old music, as the came may be — from him. Stevens’s long-lost demos, like “Give A Little Love,” can often be more fleshed-out an...
