This is a dog poo article but whatever:
Many of the guests did their own thing on-stage as Harris and Crowell merely looked on, but a few, like Raitt, had rehearsed some harmonies with Emmylou -- including, most notably, Damien Rice, who has almost turned into a where-are-they-now case, not having released a studio album since his 2006 breakthrough. His vocals on “The Blower’s Daughter” counted as the loudest and most gorgeously passionate of the night, and the extra poignance that Harris’ harmony part brought to the lonesome tune only made its ironic “’Till I find somebody new” kicker all the more incongruous and made even Rice chuckle.
