“New York Comeback” by Lucinda Williams

"New York Comeback" was the first taste of Stories From a Rock n Roll Heart: Lucinda Williams released it on April 4, 2023, the same day she announced the album, which followed on June 30 through Highway 20 Records, with Thirty Tigers distributing. She wrote it with Tom Overby and Jesse Malin, and produced it with Overby and Ray Kennedy, who also recorded and mixed the track and played tambourine.

The guest list is the headline: Bruce Springsteen and Patti Scialfa sing backup. But the band is no slouch either, with Doug Pettibone and Stuart Mathis on electric guitars, Reese Wynans on Hammond organ, Steve Mackey on bass and Steve Ferrone on drums, a rock and roll crew worthy of the album's title.
