Steve Martin is back in his banjo bag, linking up with the celebrated picker Alison Brown for a new collaborative album, Safe, Sensible and Sane, out Oct. 17 via Brown’s Compass Records. The track also arrives with a music video, which was filmed at the Troubadour in Los Angeles. Of returning to the famed venue to record the clip, Martin tells Rolling Stone: “The Troubadour was the center of a controlled nuclear explosion for so many careers. Before making a whole album together, Martin and Brown collaborated on a pair of songs, “Foggy Morning Breaking” and “Bluegrass Radio,” released in 2023 and 2024, respectively. In a statement, Brown said the pair didn’t even get into Safe, Sensible and Sound with the specific idea of making an album.
