On the eve of Edie Brickell’s release of two new CDs, Edie Brickell and The Gaddabouts (January 11 and 25, respectively), I interviewed the singer—still best known for her early hit “What I Am”—for Vanity Fair’s Web site. Brickell, who still speaks with a Texas drawl, had a lot to say, not only about the unusual CD double-drop, but about, among other things, rock’s two iconic Pauls, Lady Gaga’s “showmanship,” songwriting on the fly—and why religion is the smile on a dog. VanityFair.com published the highlights on its Daily Blog.
