Comedian Steve Martin Plays Banjo on His New Bluegrass Album, ‘The Crow’ - NYTimes.com

Comedian Steve Martin Plays Banjo on His New Bluegrass Album, ‘The Crow’ - NYTimes.com: "In his mercurial career Mr. Martin, 63, has gone from manic, rabbit-eared stand-up comedian to introspective memoirist. He has made movies for Carl Reiner (“The Jerk”) and David Mamet (“The Spanish Prisoner”) alike. Through his many incarnations a banjo has never been far from his reach, whether the instrument was an integral part of his act or a tool to help him unwind in private.

Now Mr. Martin is once again in the musician’s role as he releases an album called “The Crow: New Songs for the Five-String Banjo.”"
