Local rockers Jason and the Scorchers are putting together a new album, and lead singer Jason Ringenberg talked Emmylou Harris into singing a duet with him. And
he's still shaking. "I'm just a major fan of Emmy," Jason says. "I've been listening to her since I was knee-high."

The two sang a tune co-written by Jason and Scorchers drummer Perry Baggs called Everything Has a Cost, about a couple whose love for each other turns into a
love for materialism. "It's completely different from the Scorchers," Jason said. "It's laid back and really pretty and really moving."

And, Jason said, the two voices blended well at last week's session. "I had chills the whole time. I kept having to pinch myself."
