Lyle Lovett and John Hiatt

There’s a group of musicians who crested around 1990 that worked in different genres, but who transitioned their musical success into quirky acting careers. Jazz guy Harry Connick Jr., for instance, stalked Sigourney Weaver in Copycat and then ended up on Will and Grace; “Wicked Game” singer Chris Isaak is one of the few actors to work with both David Lynch and John Waters; and Lyle Lovett appeared in four different Robert Altman movies, playing a detective, a creepy baker, a cowboy boot designer, and a father figure for Liv Tyler. Better known for his droll songwriting, Lovett joins John Hiatt for a stripped-down evening of acoustic country.
