180 Gram Vinyl! 15th Studio Album! 3-Time Grammy Award Winner!
A protégé of legendary songwriters Townes Van Zandt and Guy Clark, Earle quickly became a master storyteller in his own right, with his songs being recorded by Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings, Travis Tritt, The Pretenders, Joan Baez and countless others. 1986 saw the release of his debut record, Guitar Town, which shot to number one on the country charts and immediately established the term New Country. What followed was an extremely exciting and varied array of releases including the biting hard rock of Copperhead Road (1988), the minimalist beauty of Train A Comin (1995), the politically charged masterpiece, Jerusalem (2002) and the Grammy Award Winning albums The Revolution Starts Now (2004), Washington Square Serenade (2007) and Townes (2009). Ill Never Get Out Of This World Alive (2011) is Steve Earles 14th Studio Album and shares the same name with his 2011 debut novel. Of the novel, Patti Smith stated, Steve Earle brings to his prose the same authenticity, poetic spirit and cinematic energy he projects in his music. Ill Never Get Out Of This World Alive is like a dream you cant shake, offering beauty and remorse, redemption in spades.
Steve Earle is set to release his new album The Low Highway via New West Records. The 12-track set is the anticipated follow up to 2011s Grammy Award-nominated album Ill Never Get Out Of This World Alive and is the first billed as Steve Earle & The Dukes (& Duchesses). The album is also the first to feature The Dukes band name since 1987s Exit 0. The Low Highway features his live band consisting of Chris Masterson, Eleanor Whitmore, Kelley Looney, Will Rigby and Allison Moorer and was co-produced by Earle and Ray Kennedy (whose production partnership known as the Twangtrust was behind Lucinda Williams Car Wheels on a Gravel Road). The Low Highway is Earles 15th studio album since the release of his highly influential 1986 debut Guitar Town.
