Steve Martin and Alison Brown shine a light on bluegrass and the banjo

You might know Steve Martin as a comedy legend, but he’s also a serious musician. If you know his early comedy albums, like 'A Wild and Crazy Guy,' you might even be familiar with his banjo playing. In recent years, he’s gotten a lot more serious about the banjo, joining bluegrass bands and releasing music. Now, he’s teamed up with Alison Brown — one of the best banjo players alive — on a new album, 'Safe, Sensible And Sane.' Steve and Alison join Tom Power to talk about the record, how they both found their way back to the banjo and what makes their musical collaboration so special.

The chat is informal, wide-ranging, playful, and allows the artist to explore their art and the contexts that have shaped them through their career.
