Jazz great Bix Beiderbecke was born in Davenport, Iowa on this date in 1903.
Singer/songwriter Edie Brickell is celebrating her 45th birthday today.
Edie's 1988 album with The New Bohemians, Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars got to #4 on Billboard and went double platinum.
Edie married Paul Simon in 1992. They met on the set of Saturday Night Live in 1990. While she was performing she noticed Paul standing in front of the cameraman, "He made me mess the song up when I looked at him," she said with a smile. "We can show the kids the tape and say, 'Look, that's when we first laid eyes on each other.'"
