Lovett's new album, IT'S NOT BIG IT'S LARGE, suggests notions of mortality, loss and the fluidity of time. An eclectic slate of songs that range from fervent country swing through gospel-blues. Anchored by a vibrant, swinging take on Lester Young's "Tickle Toe" his big band's first sprawling instrumental workout in many a year, Lovett quickly segues into the intriguing gospel-blues of the "I Will Rise Up/Ain't No More Cane" medley before shrewdly contemplating life and fame's inevitable grade on "All Downhill from Here" and "This Traveling Around" Lovett celebrates his 50th year here with a muse that's ever restless, yet still spry enough to relish the simple, varied joys of the buoyant "Up in Indiana", the bluesy "No Big Deal" and the gospel-meets-carnal playfulness of "Make It Happy" before another fervent, elegiac version of "Ain't No More Cane" brings the album full-circle. This deluxe edition features a bonus DVD which contains nearly an hours worth of exclusive live performance and behind the scenes of the creative process during the recording sessions.
