You may remember the original Steve and Eydie. Now there’s a new modern version, Steve and Edie. Two dynamite entertainers that come together making simple and beautiful melodies. 

 

Steve Martin, 67, plays tinkling bluegrass sounds on his banjo mixed with Edie Brickell, 47, who has a delicate Texas folk sound. They compliment each other well. Their music is contemporary with an old-fashioned flavor. The new album (released last Tuesday) has Edie’s whimsical, poetic lyrics and Martin’s genius but understated style. 

 

 

Edie Brickell was my first musical love. I was so excited to see that she partnered with the legendary Steve Martin (Renaissance man) on their new album, Love Has Come for You. I’m not so excited that they’re NOT scheduled to perform in Texas on their concert tour (especially knowing that they were both born in Texas). 

 

When you get to Asheville is one of my favorites but once I have the album playing, I don’t stop it…I can play the whole album and love every song. Listen to Steve and Edie perform When you get to Asheville with The Steep Canyon Rangers on the Late Show with David Letterman and you’ll be hooked too. 

 

 

To Steve and Edie I say, “When you get to Dallas, send me an email!” xx
