Shawn Colvin and Steve Earle are releasing a new album, appropriately titled Colvin & Earle. To give us a taste of their new music, the duo have made available one of the songs from the album called “You’re Right (I’m Wrong).”
Colvin’s and Earle’s on-stage collaborations go back decades, and Colvin featured an excellent cover of Earle’s “Someday” on her 1994 album of covers, Cover Girl. The new album from the pair of singer-songwriters also will include them both singing Earle’s “Someday,” as well as other songs, including a cover of The Rolling Stones’ “Ruby Tuesday.”
On “You’re Right (I’m Wrong)” the two harmonize on a gritty rock song. Earle explained to Rolling Stone that the song is “the darkest piece on the record — a little scary even for Shawn and myself.” Check it out.
Colvin and Earle release Colvin & Earle on June 10, 2016.
