Lucinda Williams is giving back to her fans. While she doesn't control the ticket prices for her shows, she is giving everyone who attends a discount at the merchandise table of $7 on clothing and $5 on CDs. "I understand that this may only be a small gesture and in no way solves the problem long term, but I feel that it is important to try and do something to make it a little easier during th...

PopMatters has been bemoaning the fact that the music industry seems to be working by the adage "if a woman doesn't have a hit by the time she's 22 years old, she should probably look for another career." To counter this apparent (and not totally true) trend, they've come up with a list of ten great albums from 2008 by women 45-years-old or older. PopMatters Best Records of 2008 by Women 45...

After listening to Little Honey it is great to see Lucinda Williams happy again. I'm also glad she is still sassy. She has recorded her share of memorable duets over the years, but "Jailhouse Tears" is in my opinion the best duet of her career. Previously my favorite duet of hers was "Down to the Well" with Kevin Gordon from 2000. The duet with Costello ranks with some of the great country d...

A happy Lucinda Williams...

Lots of enthusiam to see the final show of Luncinda's fall tour in support of the new "Little Honey" record.In prepping for the show I glanced back through some reviews from September and October and the ...

Little Honey , the fourth in a series of Lost Highway-issued Williams studio albums released this decade, is yet another steady piece of competent Americana from one of this era's most celebrated songwriters. Each album in the series is nearly as noteworthy as her 1998 classic Car Wheel On a Gravel Road , though none hit the long-labored perfection for which that album is celebrated. Little mor...

I've written before on AWT that I was no fan of Lucinda's previous release West. The whole girl gets done wrong by a loser then gets dark and dreary act was old on on the album. There were few great songs on the album but what worked on World Without Tears slid into a disturbing creepiness on West. I say all of this because Williams is absolutely one of my favorite artists. I am not one of thes...

A roomate of mine played me a track off of "Car wheels.." and I've been a Lucinda fan ever since. I have to say I'm still partial to that album! There's something life-altering about that album when you're listening...still my favorite of hers

LUCINDA WILLIAMS – WEST (2007)Lucinda Williams was born confronting demons, and her emotionally charged prose has been haunting listeners for 28 years with the type of gritty honesty few in her field could possibly replicate. Her ravaged, heartfelt musings are often far from comforting, and one could argue that the biting lyrics draw more similarities to the Blues than her gentle Alt. Country s...

raw and exposed, beautiful and honesthumanity goes beyond genres and sexMost artists who appeal to adult listeners tend to settle into a comfortable niche, but Lucinda Williams refuses to play it safe. Instead, her music stings like an open wound, as she continues to strip away the protective layers from her art's emotional core. Though Williams has long been prized for the naked honesty of her...
