Edie Arlisa Brickell (born March 10, 1966) is an #singer #songwriter widely known for 1988's Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars, the debut album by Edie Brickell & New Bohemians, which went to No. 4 on the Billboard 200 chart. She is married to Paul Simon.
In 1985, Brickell was invited to sing one night with friends from her high school in a local folk rock group, New Bohemians. She would join the band as lead singer. After the band was signed to a recording contract, the label changed the group’s name to Edie Brickell & New Bohemians. Their 1988 debut album, Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars, became a critical and commercial success, including the single “What I Am.” The band’s follow-up album, Ghost of a Dog (1990), was a deliberate effort to highlight the band’s eclectic personality and move away from the pop sensibility of their first record.
Brickell had a role as a folk singer in the 1989 film Born on the Fourth of July. Her version of Bob Dylan’s “A Hard Rain’s a-Gonna Fall” is featured on the film’s soundtrack. She also sang a cover version of Lou .Reed’s “Walk on the Wild Side” in the 1990 film Flashback.
