Martin Kicks Off Tour, New Album
Steve Martin and his touring band, the Steep Canyon Rangers, have set out on the road riding the tails of his Grammy winning album, The Crow. The tour is currently scheduled through October with more dates to be announced.
Martin and the Rangers will be making an appearance at this year’s Bonnaroo Music Festival in Manchester, Tennessee.
In a recent interview with Billboard Magazine, Steve reveals that he and the band will be back in the studio in August to start working on a follow up album. Tentatively the release date is set for early 2011.
“The album will once again be comprised of all original material,” Martin confirms. “There’s no point for me not to do original compositions,” he says. “What do I do — cover somebody else’s song? That’s ridiculous.”
