Lyle Lovett and his Large Band

by Lyle Lovett

Continuing to deeply subvert the rigid expectations of mainstream country music, the Texan songwriter completely embraced big band instrumentation for his highly acclaimed third album. Half the record focuses on swinging, horn-drenched jazz and R&B, while the other half returns to his signature, stripped-down folk-country storytelling. The Grammy-winning release solidified his reputation as one of the most eccentric and sophisticated voices in American roots music.
