A combination of elements of Blues, Gospel, Folk, and Country is Lyle Lovett’s latest release, “Pants is Overrated.” It’s been over ten years since Lovett released his last album. This single is the first release from a new Lovett album to be released this May. “12th if June” drops May 13 and is available for pre sale now.
I began listening to Lyle Lovett many years ago after another of my favorites in the Texas Country Genre, Robert Earle Keen made much reference to his fellow Aggie. The two have co written songs together dating back from their days at Texas A&M University. I was able to catch an acoustic show that blew me away several years ago where Keen and Lovett swapped songs, each artist performing the others creation.
Release Me is my all time favorite Lyle Lovett album. My favorite performance by Lyle is of him covering the Guy Clark penned- “Step Inside This House”
Looking forward to this greats, new album and his future in the music industry.
Pancho.
I unfortunately have not seen these two in concert, but only have only heard good things from those that have.
