Joan Baez Talks Meeting Her Girlfriend Kimmie in This New I Am A Noise Clip

Directed by Miri Navasky, Maeve O’Boyle, and Karen O’Connor, I Am A Noise is "a raw and intimate portrait of the legendary folk singer and activist that shifts back and forth through time as it follows Joan on her final tour and delves into her extraordinary archive, including newly discovered home movies, diaries, artwork, therapy tapes, and audio recordings," the film's official description reads.

"Baez is remarkably revealing about her life on and off stage - from her lifelong emotional struggles to her civil rights work with MLK and a heartbreaking romance with a young Bob Dylan. A searingly honest look at a living legend, this film is a compelling and deeply personal exploration of an iconic artist who has never told the full truth of her life, as she experienced it, until now."

And Out has a brand new clip from the doc, where Baez talks about meeting and starting a relationship with her girlfriend Kimmie!

"She was great," Baez says about Kimmie in the clip. "She could out-drink anybody on the coast and she served for seven hours at a time and all this wonderful stuff that I didn't do. She was more feral than I was, didn't have any consciousness of rules and regulations. We were tearing around town in boots and cutoffs and suspenders and weird hair and headbands. Just ruffians."

"We ended up together," she continued. "It was a major turn. What it gave me was another whole angle on love, another whole angle on sex. A couple of years it lasted, a nice couple of years. I think, probably soothing after men."

I Am A Noise is now playing in New York and will expand to Los Angeles and other markets on Friday, October 13.
