Singer-Songwriter Lucinda Williams has announced her newest single “New York Comeback” off her upcoming album Stories From A Rock N’ Roll Heart.
The last couple years have been challenging for Williams to say the least. In 2020, a tornado damaged her new home in Nashville, followed two weeks later by the beginning of the COVID lockdown. Later that November, Williams suffered a stroke that partially impaired some of her motor skills on the left side of her body, forcing her to learn to walk again and taking away her ability to play the guitar.
This new single however marks a triumphant return from Lucinda. “New York Comeback,” written by Williams, Tom Overby and Jesse Malin, also includes guest vocalists – Bruce Springsteen and Patti Scialfa. A Lucinda Williams fan, Springsteen joined her onstage in London a few years back, and he and Scialfa had wanted to contribute to a Williams album for some time.
With Wynans on B3 and the Pettibone-Mathis guitar attack, the musical setting perfectly matches the theme of “Comeback”. Says Williams, “Having Bruce and Patti on these songs feels really great. It’s just so cool!”
Lucinda’s newest album Stories From A Rock N’ Roll Heart will be released June 30th.
