For nearly four decades, Shawn Colvin and Steve Earle have been two of the premier singer-songwriters in modern music, and they’ve been friends for just as long. So it’s surprising to find out the duo hadn’t recorded together until this year. But Colvin & Earle makes up for lost time; it’s an album packed with the kind of timeless folk- and country-inflected songs that put the artists on the map to begin with. Fans shouldn’t miss the chance to see these titans of Americana onstage together.
