From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Edie Brickell (born March 10, 1966 in Dallas, (Oak Cliff) Texas) is an American singer/songwriter. In the late 1980s Brickell was the lead singer with the (now renamed) folk-rock group Edie Brickell and New Bohemians, whose 1988 debut album Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars was a critical and sales success. Follow-up albums Ghost of a Dog (1990) and Picture Perfect Morning (1994) fared less well. In part this was because she was focused on her 1991 marriage to US songwriter Paul Simon and, later, their children. In 2003 Brickell released her first album in ten years, Volcano.
Many computer users know her from the Good Times video which was included as part of the multimedia samples on the Windows 95 installation CD-ROM.
