  Edie Brickell & New Bohemians - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Edie Brickell and New Bohemians are a jam band that originated in Texas in the mid-1980s.
The New Bohemians started as a 3 piece ska-style band in the early eighties, cutting their teeth in the new Deep Ellum neighborhood in downtown Dallas.
The New Bohemians have released compilations and a live album, and have recorded some new material in recent years, notably as a short-lived band named The Slip that included Brickell, but most former members have moved on to other projects.

 Edie Brickell & New Bohemians - Stranger Things (Album Review)
Edie Brickell and New Bohemians was a good band that was on the verge of becoming a great one when it suddenly disbanded after its sophomore effort Ghost of a Dog failed to achieve the same level of commercial success as its platinum-selling debut Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars.
Though Brickell made several attempts at forging a solo career via the slick sterility of Picture Perfect Morning as well as the subtle beauty of Volcano, neither album quite captured the organic essence of the work that she did with her former group.
As Brickell sings about a final effort to salvage a relationship that has gone sour, New Bohemians creates a warm, inviting atmosphere that perfectly frames the yearning in her voice, and the result is a song that ought to provide the ensemble with the perfect vehicle for retaking the pop charts.

 The Austin Chronicle Music: What It Is: Edie Brickell
What's back in place prompting Brickell to grant her first extensive interview in nearly a decade is the original New Bohemians lineup: Brickell, guitarist Kenny Withrow, bassist Brad Houser, percussionist John Bush, and Aly on drums.
While Brickell admits it's mostly "jams we managed to lasso enough to call songs," Montauk's eight tracks are as loose, funky, and soulful as the last collection released under the New Bohemians moniker, 1985's It's Like This, the homemade cassette that put Deep Ellum back on the map and the New Bohemians on Geffen.
Although a new deal with Island/Palm Pictures fell through when the label said it didn't hear any hits, by all accounts, the string of Dallas shows the New Bohemians have played over the past year have been nothing short of a return to original form, i.e., lots of noodling and improvisation.

 Artists Discography
Edie Brickell and The New Bohemians first stormed onto the charts with their 1989 debut Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars.
This new recording represents the honest, unadulterated and utterly charming sound of a longtime band just being itself, with tracks that include “One Last Time” and “Oh My Soul.” Brickell calls this album a, “true beginning,” the one effort in which she and her original band-mates perform together as a bonafide group.
Soulful, sometimes downright funky, grooves form the backdrop for Brickell’s compelling story-songs, engaging miniatures about lovers interrupting the housework to rekindle their spark, disco-loving palls figuring out what to do on a Saturday night after their money’s gone and a pair of young runaways confronting romantic uncertainty.

 Review/Music; Rock by Edie Brickell and New Bohemians - New York Times
Two years ago, the young Texan band Edie Brickell and New Bohemians had the enormous good fortune to release a debut album that climbed into the top five of the pop album charts.
Brickell's song "What I Am," a wistful, whimsical little folk-jazz tune she delivered in a coy, feline voice that elicited comparisons with Rickie Lee Jones because of the way both singers slide around and between notes.
Brickell and her band are still very unformed was reinforced by its dispiriting performance at the Beacon Theater on Wednesday evening.

 Edie Brickell News: CD Review: Edie Brickell and New Bohemians, "Stranger Things" (Fantasy/Concord) >> liveDaily
In what would have to rank as one of the year's least expected comebacks, Edie Brickell (music) and New Bohemians return with their first album in 16 years.
It's not like the masses have been clamoring for the return of Brickell and the Bohemians, a group that first stormed the charts with the 1989 debut CD "Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars" and the hit single "What I Am." Yet, here they are again--and sounding like a completely re-energized and vital band.
Brickell, however, does show some range, especially on the jazzy, Latin-tinged "No Dinero," which comes across like the type of hipster, lounge-friendly ditty that one finds in the songbook of Nellie McKay.
