The wildly entertaining “Wild! Wild! Wild” collaboration between Robbie Fulks and Linda Gail Lewis was released on Bloodshot Records yesterday, but the news gets even better. They’ll perform in Nashville on Sept. 11 at American Legion Post 82.

Robbie Fulks to play the Bluebird Cafe March 22
Robbie Fulks is coming to the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville on Thursday, March 22. It’s an unusual evening because the Bluebird typically features four songwriters sitting in the round, swapping songs and stories. But Robbie clearly doesn’t need any reinforcements.
I met him in 2000 when I was organizing a free speech benefit at the Bluebird and our mutual friend Bill Lloyd invited him to play. The premise of the evening was that every artist would play a song that was once controversial. Robbie performed a perfect gender-bending version of Loretta Lynn’s “The Pill.”
That pretty much sums Robbie Fulks up: a fine musician and songwriter with a love of country music and a bent sense of humor. His “Upland Stories” album garnered two Grammy nominations. Don’t miss him.
