<h3>Jeff Bridges Signs with Blue Note Records.</h3>
<p>Oscar winning actor and talented musician <strong>Jeff Bridges</strong> has signed with <strong>EMI&#8217;s Blue Note Records</strong> with a new album due out this summer. Bridges has been all over the map talent wise for years, but you probably would recognize him from his most recent films,<strong><em> Crazy Heart</em></strong>, in which he played a downtrodden country singer and <strong><em>True Grit</em></strong> in which he is featured as a tough time-worn U.S. Marshall in the days of the old west. </p>
<p>He will be collaborating on his new album with <strong>T-Bone Burnett</strong> with whom he has been working for many years. </p>
<blockquote><p>
“It’s a relationship that’s really inflamed my music.&#8221; Bridges says of his partnership with Burnett</p></blockquote>
<p>Indeed, the two worked on the soundtrack for <em>Crazy Heart</em> together and Burnett won an Oscar for &#8220;<em>Best Original Song</em>&#8221; for &#8220;<em>The Weary Kind</em>&#8220;. </p>
<p>Bridges was recently featured on a documentary series produced by PBS, <em>American Masters</em>. <a href="http://www.pbs.org/wnet/americanmasters/episodes/jeff-bridges-the-dude-abides/watch-the-full-film/1771/">You can click here to check out <strong><em>Jeff Bridges: The Dude Abides</em></strong> here. </a></p>
