   How did DeVotchKa get a Little Miss Sunshine gig?

   • Devotchka snagged the Little Miss Sunshine gig when the film’s directors Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris heard one of the band’s songs on powerhouse radio station KCRW and began scouting the foursome for possible soundtrack work. “They came to a couple shows without telling us,” Urata says. “Then they called me up and we became friends.”

   Why is DeVotchKa so eccentric?

Devotchka’s sound owes a lot to Urata’s past.
