Edie Brickell and New Bohemians – Rocket (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Edie Brickell's voice has always carried that rare quality of sounding both effortless and deeply felt, and the New Bohemians remain one of the few bands from the late-'80s college rock wave whose eclecticism feels earned rather than studied. The Dallas roots and the improvisational looseness that made "What I Am" such an unlikely hit were never a fluke; they were a signature, and Rocket finds the band returning to that well with the confidence of musicians who never really left it behind.
Vinyl LP pressing. 2018 release. Thirty years ago, Edie Brickell and New Bohemians exploded out of Dallas and became an international sensation with their double-platinum debut album, Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars, featuring the Top Ten hit, 'What I Am'. Now, the group returns with Rocket, their first new music in a dozen years and as the title indicates, they remain a propulsive and unclassifiable force, a whirlwind of musical ideas and styles. Edie Brickell & New Bohemians' music contains elements of rock, folk, blues, and jazz. Following the release of their 1990 second album Ghost of a Dog, lead singer Edie Brickell left the band and married singer-songwriter Paul Simon. In 2006, she and the band launched a new web site and released a new album, Stranger Things.
