Wow, so Lucy and Richard have a new project without Dar (Williams). They are playing at the Alberta Rose in Portland, OR, on May 14th. Just contacted a friend to see if he's available. We attended Richard's solo performance there about, 5?, 6? months ago. It was a great show.

Yeah, The Sweetest Thing was pretty good. I didn't realize the song had such an extensive history for U2/Bono/Ali.

The Pine Hill Project's cover of Greg Brown's Lately was ... not terribly inspiring, but I'll give Lucy and Richard a break. May be stellar in live performance.

Here's the Cry, Cry, Cry version of Richard Shindell's classic, The Ballad of Mary Magdalen, with Dar on lead vocal:



Thanks, hippywife, for alerting me to this new endeavor by a couple of my favorite musicians.
