Firsties and Faves: Shy Girls

One of our biggest crushes tells about his first kiss, his favorite emoji, and more.

As an editorial body Noisey rarely develops crushes, but when we fall we fall hard. Case in point: Dan Vidmar, the sensitive R&B genius behind Portland's Shy Girls. Yesterday he released his debut Timeshare EP, which makes us feel like shy girls swooning over his perfect falsetto. We summoned the nerve to ask him a couple questions for the latest installment of Firsties and Favs:

First Kiss: The girl next door.

First time getting in trouble at school: Kicked a soccer ball through a classroom window during recess. First record purchased: First CD—Space Jam Soundtrack; first vinyl LP—Led Zeppelin IV. First style icon: Michael Jordan. First time staying up all night: Probably a sleepover when I was like 8. Fave physical texture: My own hair. Fave non-musical Sound: Nail gun. Fave emoji: The ones with the girl with a pink shirt on. Fave fast food menu item: Here's the part where I say "I don't eat fast food". But the answer is probably a McChicken. Fave time staying up all night: Making beats till I pass out.
