Liz Phair shares new song “Hey Lou”
Liz Phair has just released her first new song in two years — "Hey Lou" which was produced by her old pal and Exile in Guyville collaborator Brad Wood. (It's from her new album, Soberish, that's due at some point this year.) Says Liz: “Have you ever wondered what love looks like for your favorite celebrity couple behind closed doors? Hey Lou imagines a day in the life of two music legends, whose union was an inspiration for rock bands and a source of curiosity for die hard romantics.”
If you're wondering what celebrity couple Liz might be talking about, the song's title should help as should the music video which features puppet versions of Lou and Laurie. Watch below.
In other news, Liz has just announced her first livestream show, happening March 3. It's called “Hey Lou Hey Liz” and will feature new songs and classics, and Brad Wood will be on hand for a discussion about her music and career. Tickets are on sale.
In other other news, Liz has announced rescheduled dates for her tour with Alanis Morissette and Garbage (that was supposed to happen last year). The new dates are currently set to start June 11 at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles and include NYC-area shows at Jones Beach on August 29 and PNC Bank Arts Center on September 1. We'll see.
