well, basically, sarah had planned a show but suddenly got laryngitis but didn't want to have to cancel.  A bunch of fellow toronto musician friends banded together to put on a sort of "covers" show but with Sarah still playing piano.  I heard she used a whiteboard to communicate and everything.  Cute.  Very sarah.

Does anyone here have the Mute Cute Girl CD or MP3's? I've been dying to hear J Englishman's cover of Me and Jerome for years!

mm.. I know that the recordings must exist somewhere (why would they record only part of the show?) but I am not sure that they all exist online.  I have 4 of the 9 songs... but I haven't heard of anyone having the others.  The ones I have used to be available on the original official website:

Dave Matheson - Habit
Tory Cassis - High
Sjanie McInnis - Blue Parade
Sarah Harmer - My Invitation

Sjanie's voice is very similar to Sarah's (of course you can tell the difference, but you can also tell why she was Sarah's harmony vocalist for a long time - maybe still is) and so my favourite would have to be her cover.

Tory Cassis did a fun job of High... saying at the beginning of the song "This is one of my favourite songs of Sarah's, a very serious song of seduction, sung from a girl to a boy, so you have to pretend I am a girl" and then sarah madly hit a few high notes on the piano.

About a year ago I too asked if anyone had the "Mute Cute Girl CD" but sadly, one does not exist.

Anyways, don't badger yourself too much about finding the other recordings.  I had been looking for about 2 years, but resolved that they must not even be out there.  If they do, there are a VERY select few fans who have it and they are hoarding.  :)

I've been looking for the recordings for a few years now and had all but given up until someone brought up the Mute Cute Girl show. I don't really expect to find them anytime soon but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask!
