The Toronto show was fantastic. Lots of interplay between the musicians and Joe looked to be having a good time. Joe did much of the talking between songs. He played several songs, and kicked off with 'Sold' definitely a highlight.

Hannigan is great live - her songs sounded even stronger live than on the albums. Passenger is still a solid album.

The second guitarist, John Smith, is an accomplished musician in his own right and his songs were good too. See www.johnsmithjohnsmith.com.

This expansive album was produced by Joe Henry and features vocal performances from the likes of Norah Jones, Emmylou Harris, Lucinda Williams and many others. You can watch Rodney and Mary discuss the project here...

Joe Henry produces Natalie Duncan's 'Devil In Me' (UK release) This one swept in pretty low under my radar, but UK artist Natalie Duncan has just released a new record entitled Devil In Me.

I just got my copy yesterday, and my initial impressions are that Duncan's style is bit of torch and jazz with some R&B overtones (is that nondescript enough for you?). UPDATE: Stream the album here. You can order from Amazon UK here. I haven't seen any info that would...
