According to San Diego News Network legendary music insider and talent finder Kim Fowley is apparently helping Maren Parusel, an up and coming San Diego musician, win a spot on the Eclipse soundtrack. There also may have been a bit of assistance from Kristen Stewart.

“Mario Escovedo, the local talent hound who happens to be the younger brother of Javier Escovedo of ’70s-vintage all-boy rock band The Zeros, reports that “legendary producer” Fowley was in Austin last week for South by Southwest “to promote the movie about how he discovered Joan Jett and The Runaways,” when he “met Maren Parusel unloading equipment in an alley.”

“Two days later she was recording with him in Los Angeles,” remaking her “Ordinary Day,” Escovedo e-mails.

“I’m hearing nothing but good things about the movie,” he adds. “And because of the actress playing Joan Jett, Kim Fowley struck a deal to write some songs for Twilight three.”

So, maybe it’s a shot in the dark and maybe they have a shot, only time will tell because very indie band in town is sending in their pitch.For that matter so are the mainstream ones, Muse seems to have worked their way back on the soundtrack after initial reports that they were off.

Is anyone a fan of Maren Parusel? How would you classify her music?
