That's the name of a new LP by Edie Brickell and Steve Martin.
Yes...THAT Steve Martin...Renaissance Man and a damn good banjo player.
I saw the duet perform a song from the album on Dave Letterman and I was immediately hooked.
The song, "When You Get To Asheville" is a sweet number with a light banjo playing and Edie's voice subtly whispering the lyric.
A hit.
Other songs that stand out are, "Get Along Stray Dog", "Siamese Cat", "Sarah Jane and the Iron Mountain Baby" and "Sun's Gonna Shine."
The music is hard to describe...a mix of bluegrass and country and a little pop perhaps, but I love the collaboration of Edie and Steve and I am hoping for more from them.
It's on Amazon.com...of course...
