Elijah Wood, Shillin' for the Apples

Published Friday, November 17, 2006 by Jeff | E-mail this post

Elijah Wood, best known as "Frodo" from Lord of the Rings and founder of The Apples in Stereo's new label, Simian Records, actually spent some time during the recent CMJ Festival to shoot the first video, "Energy," from the Apples' new album, New Magnetic Wonder. He is scheduled to appear on the Jimmy Kimmel show next week (I'm not sure of the date; the website doesn't have him listed), and word is that he will try to get a clip from the video shown, as he couldn't fit it into his recent appearance on Conan O'Brien.

He's been making the talk show rounds because he is appearing in two new films, "Bobby" and "Happy Feet," the latter in which he actually had all of his limbs sawn off just so he could fit in the penguin suit, such is his DeNiro-like craft. (No, wait...I'm thinking of his appearance in "Sin City.") Anyway, he DID get to plug the Apples on the Today Show, and you can see a clip of him doing just that right here:
