Earlier this year Penny and Sparrow released Live in Texas, 2019, their first live album compiled from recordings of their shows at Paramount Theatre in Austin, TX and Majestic Theatre in Dallas, TX in late 2019. Paste Magazine called the album "a stirring recording, especially hearing it after so long without live music." They've also released a number of videos recorded with Southbound Creative, performing songs from their 2019 album
Finch like "Long Gone," "Stockholm," and "Cult Classically." Their cover of "White Ferrari" by Frank Ocean, who's music was a major influence on the recording of Finch, was praised by Mxdwn, American Songwriter and Rolling Stone who named it one of the 10 Best Country and Americana Songs To Hear Now saying "folk duo Penny & Sparrow turns Frank Ocean's 'White Ferrari' into a stirring acoustic ballad with this live performance." This year they've also released a stripped down cover of pop star Dua Lipa's hit song "
Don't Start Now".
