Minnie Driver will sing about broken hearts, bar fights, lost loves and dead dogs on her new CD.

I kid. I like Country music.........

Independent:

We might know Driver best as one of our more successful ex-pat Hollywood actresses, but she was a musician long before she turned to acting. And, having overcome initial scepticism to win enthusiastic reviews for her first album four years ago, she's back with a new one. It's not just a vanity project either – her impressive supporting cast includes Ryan Adams and his band The Cardinals, as well as indie singer Liz Phair. And a fine effort it is, too, Driver's warm, smoky voice perfectly suited to a set of melodic self-penned songs of love and heartbreak, inspired by a failed relationship.
