Edie Brickell and New Bohemians released their fifth studio album this week.
Hunter and the Dog Star, from record label Thirty Tigers, contains 11 new songs, and it’s their first album in 12 years.
“There’s a chemistry with New Bohemians that never went away and the songs on Hunter and the Dog Star are as fresh, buoyant and funny as any the band has ever laid down,” the Associated Press said.
Brickell was born and raised in Oak Cliff.
The band first got together in the late 1980s Deep Ellum and East Dallas, and in 1988 they hits with their first album, Shooting Rubber Bands at the Stars.
Brickell has said that the band never broke up, but they were on hiatus because she chose to stay home to raise her kids and couldn’t tour.
The new album has a couple of videos, including this one released last month for “What Makes You Happy.”
