Tonight at Housing Works, longtime author and first-time songwriter Jonathan Lethem appears with the Silos to celebrate the release of their collaborative album, I'm Not Jim. Lethem and bandleader Walter Salas-Humara first locked eyes across a smokey Silos show in New Orleans. The author quickly turned out an album's worth of lyrics for the Silos that echo the rueful wordplay of his books, spinning variations on a familiar theme for both Lethem and the alt-country pioneers. As the Silos perform material from their new Lethem-augmented album, the author reads from his latest novel, You Don't Love Me Yet.
