IN THEIR WORDS: "I wanted to give each song a sort of space around it to be its own thing, unrelated to the rest of my life, unrelated to the other songs. I wanted each story to stand out."

Musically challenging, lyrically fascinating, Sam Phillips and her band do a lot on "Don't Do Anything."

We're honored to have Sam Phillips join us in the studio for songs from her newest, "Don't Do Anything." After her split with husband/producer T Bone Burnett, Sam took on the production chores for the new album, and talks about the experience, continued collaboration with Burnett and more. Additionally, she brought her stellar band for the appearance, including Jay Bellerose, Ted Reichman and multi-instrumentalist Eric Gorfain!
