The glamorous reedy redhead know to the music world as Lissy Trullie recently signed a deal with Downtown Records that will see her EP Self-Taught Learner released on the label on October 20th with four previously unreleased tracks.

She will begin recording with producer Bernard Butler to begin work on her full-length debut, which will be released on Downtown in early 2010.

Check out a recent video for “Boy Boy” (Directed by Cass Bird) below and this link to “Ready For The Floor” (Directed by Richard Kern):

Superfriends musician Lissy Trullie and blogger/model/party girl Corey Kennedy (EDITOR’S UPDATE: Nope, it sure looks like Corey Kennedy, but apparently it’s not. Corey is in the lookbook wearing the same shirt, but in t-shirt form, apparently this girl is wearing the tank-top version. The girl in the photo is an unnamed friend) and a female buddy are showing of their joyful affection for one another with a playful lip lock (below) in the latest lookbook for Chrissie Miller’s S/S 09 line for Sophomore shot by Cass Bird.

As faithful readers of Corey’s blog will know, she and Lissy have become fast friends as Corey has tagged along during the Lissy/Virgins tour.

Speaking of… The Virgins are also featured in the lookbook… and singer Donald Cumming was a model for the Fall 2008 Sophomore line.

A newer member of the NYC-music centric circle is Mr. Adam Green (formerly of the Moldy Peaches), who has even done a cover version of Biz Markie’s “Just a Friend” with Lissy:
