The New Yorker Raves About Steve Martin and Edie Brickell’s New Album, Plus Listen To A New Track

The New Yorker recently gave Steve Martin and Edie Brickell's new album, Love Has Come For You, a glowing review, saying "Martin's playing is lyrical and reserved, and it swings." Of Brickell's vocal style, Alec Wilkinson says "she manages to sing as if she were speaking intimately to another person, the way actors in Shakespeare manage, by means of breathing and pace, to deliver lines as if the thoughts they contain had just occurred to them."



Love Has Come For You, out April 23rd on Rounder Records, features 13 eloquently rootsy compositions that combine Martin's inventive five-string banjo work with Brickell's distinctive vocals and vivid, detail-rich lyrics.



Read the review and listen to the single "When You Get To Asheville" from the forthcoming album HERE.
