John Doe (born John Duchac) now makes his living primarily as an actor, appearing in everything from Boogie Nights to Carrie 2. But before he was cast in roles such as "Deputy" and "Welder" and "Amber Waves' ex-husband," he was the co-leader of X, L.A.'s best-loved punk band. His previous three solo albums swung between punk and country (the magnetic poles of X); Dim Stars, Bright Sky is just a pleasant acoustic presentation of eleven of his lonely-hearted songs, with help and harmony vocals from a long list of friends, including Aimee Mann, Juliana Hatfield, Joey Waronker, Jakob Dylan, and even Go-Go Jane Wiedlin. For all the guest starpower, however, the results sound as anonymous as Doe's chosen name.
