Steve Martin and Martin Short/Brandi Carlile

I've only heard of Brandi Carlile recently in NPR interviews. There were little snippets of her songs they played during the interview that were appealing to me.

So I watched this show and saw how extremely talented she is. She has a real stage presence and shows total calm confidence in her performance. There have been many musical guests lately that make me wonder what they are doing on the show at all, but that was not the case this week. There is no pretending in what she does on stage with that group. They all worked together so perfectly.

Oh, Steve Martin and Martin Short were pretty good too.
