“Konserten er dessverre utsolgt”

Med en naken sårbarhet i stemmen sin , har Justin Townes Earle gått fra å være et singer / songwriter talent utover det vanlige, til en av de fremste Americana -kunstnere i dag.

Å være sønnen til den legendariske Steve Earle og ha blitt oppkalt etter Townes Van Zandt gjør at han alltid vil bli målt med noen av de beste amerikanske låtskriverne i historien. Men selv om han beveger seg i samme tradisjon, holder han tett på sin egen integritet og skaper musikk som står på egne bein, like lett som brilliant, like tradisjonelt som rent og originalt.

Justin Townes Earle , son of Steve Earle, stepson of Allison Moorer, and named after songwriter Townes Van Zandt is an Americana musician based in Nashville, Tennessee.

Earle is signed to Bloodshot Records and has four released albums from 2007–2010.

Justin Townes Earle grew up in South Nashville, Tennessee with his mother, Carol Ann Hunter Earle. Earle began using drugs when he was barely 12 years old, developing a serious addiction by the late 90′s. In his teens he began playing and singing with two different Nashville bands, a rock band called the Distributors and a bluegrass-influenced acoustic combo, the Swindlers. Earle spent some time as guitarist and keyboardist for his father’s touring band the Dukes, but was fired after a dangerous appetite for drugs began interfering with his performances. Once he came off hard drugs, he began putting a new focus on his music and songwriting.

In the summer of 2009, Earle co-billed The Big Surprise Tour with Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, Old Crow Medicine Show, and The Felice Brothers.

In May 2010, he appeared alongside his father in an episode of the HBO television series Treme
