That album, among her best and most celebrated, offers a very different idea of what country music could be, how it might sound and move. \u201cIt was such a sonic departure for me,\u201d says Harris. \u201cWhen we were making the record, I was thinking: Okay, I love this, but how am I going to play it? I\u2019d had the <strong>Hot Band<\/strong> and then I\u2019d had my bluegrass band, the <strong>Nash Ramblers<\/strong>. I loved playing with them, but I knew this was different.\u201d For the subsequent tour, Lanois temporarily played guitar (before being replaced by Miller), and brought in bassist Johnson and drummer Blade. In 1996 and 1997 they toured America and Europe together. The recordings of those shows were collated on <strong>Spyboy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spyboy<\/strong>\u00a0will be available across digital platforms, compact disc and clear vinyl.
