Jim Lauderdale
Live at the Apple Store
With his soulful drawl and knack for writing material for some of the biggest artists in mainstream country (George Strait, Patty Loveless, Dixie Chicks), it’s hard to understand why Jim Lauderdale remains on the alternative fringe as a recording artist. Yet his indie status gives him the freedom to make the music he wants, such as his 2002 Grammy-winning collaboration with Ralph Stanley, “Lost in the Lonesome Pines,” or his collaboration with longtime Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter, “Headed for the Hills.” jimlauderdale.com Apple Store

Brilliant..”. In 2006, he participated in Leonard CohenI’m Your Man, a film tribute to the legendary Leonard Cohen. teddythompson.com Apple Store
