  • Justin Townes Earle Returns with ​Kids in the Street
    JUSTIN TOWNES EARLE RETURNS WITH KIDS IN THE ​ STREET MAY 26th, 2017 VIA NEW WEST RECORDS ​ BILLBOARD PREMIERES “MAYBE A MOMENT” ​ ​ VIDEO TODAY TO APPEAR AT STAGECOACH FESTIVAL THIS WEEKEND SPRING TOUR DATES WITH THE SADIES AS HIS BACKING & SUPPORT BAND ANNOUNCED “Justin Townes Earle’s Kids In The Street is his finest album to date.” UPROXX ​ Justin Townes Earle is set to release his New West Records debut Kids In The Street ​ on May 26th. The 12-song set was produced by Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes, First Aid Kit) at his ARC Studios, and is the first time in his career that Earle has worked with an outside producer. Kids In The Street marks a decade into Earle’s recording career and ​ follows his acclaimed companion albums Single Mothers (2014) and Absent Fathers ​ ​ ​ (2015). The deeply soulful set is both emotionally riveting and effortlessly uplifting. Now embracing sobriety, marriage, and impending fatherhood, Earle is enthusiastically looking to the future. “Life has changed a lot for me in the last few years,” Earle reflects. “I got married and am getting ready to become a father, and this is the first record that I’ve written since I’ve been married. There’s definitely an uplifting aspect to this record in a lot of ways, because I’m feeling pretty positive.” He continues, “When I wrote songs in the past, I was looking in on what I was feeling, but this record’s more about looking outward on what’s happening, and writing about subjects like gentrification and inner city strife.

  • I See Hawks in L.A. Release Their Tenth Album, on Our Way, New Directions Spun from Strange Times, Set for August 27 Release
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 26, 2021 I SEE HAWKS IN L.A. RELEASE THEIR TENTH ALBUM, ON OUR WAY, NEW DIRECTIONS SPUN FROM STRANGE TIMES, SET FOR AUGUST 27 RELEASE LOS ANGELES, Calif. — “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times” has earned its hoary immortality in Memeville. That’s how it was from February 2020 onward. That’s how it hit I See Hawks in L.A., who played their final live show at Ben Vaughn’s Wonder Valley Festival. The evening was charged, Ben and the Hawks (as ISHILA is otherwise known) pushing against the unknown at the edge of the desert night. I See Hawks in L.A. — who will release their first post-pandemic album, On Our Way, on August 27, 2021 — tell the rest of story in their own words: And then, well you know. Le lockdown. For I See Hawks in L.A., it was disruptive, but we’re drawn to disruption, we create disruption, it’s a creative source, and here it was handed to us writ large by global fate. How do little old us ride this floodwave? We dove in, digitally. Without ever playing music in the same room. As was near universal for musicians, reality was the all-embracing screen, cyber images that sang and played drums and guitar. Rob and Paul went on an uncharacteristically locked-in songwriting schedule, every Friday facetiming it at the crack of 4 p.m., quite a challenge (you can't play guitars at the same time) — but also an oasis from chaos.

  • Steve Earle Townes Biography
    Steve Earle Townes Biography Steve Earle had two reasons for coming out with this long-planned tribute to Townes Van Zandt now. The first reason is practical. Earle is currently pushing himself to finish a years-in-the-making novel, and he wants to see it in print before the publishing business goes belly up. The second is a more personal concern. Like all artists worthy of the name, Steve Earle loves the truth, and in the case of Van Zandt, he sees that the waters are muddying before his eyes. Very often over periods of years, the truth first becomes myth and myth later becomes truth. In regards to his teacher, hero and friend Townes Van Zandt, Steve Earle was not about to let that happen. “I’m very thankful that when I got out of jail I started meeting people like Jay Farrar and other people his age that knew Townes chapter and verse,” he says. “I’ve always been very thankful for that. But a lot of what powered that is a take on roots music that comes from alternative music, and the crowd that kind of attached itself to Townes was the same kind of people that have White Light / White Heat in the front of their record collection so everybody knows how intense they are when they have a party. I love that record, but I don’t think I’ve listened to it all the way through since I bought it.” “I’m tryin’ not to kill myself,” he laughs. Van Zandt’s reputation has been under something of an overhaul since the dawn of the 1990s.

  • The Art of Play: Video Games Exhibit Opens at Museum in Washington
    29 March 2012 | MP3 at voaspecialenglish.com The Art of Play: Video Games Exhibit Opens at Museum in Washington VOA The new exhibit at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American Art JUNE SIMMS: Welcome to AMERICAN MOSAIC in VOA Special English. (MUSIC) I'm June Simms. On the program today, we play new music from Justin Townes Earle … And we return to a story about the sale of shares in a company that operates a famous New York skyscraper … But first, we go play games at an art show in Washington. (MUSIC) "The Art of Video Games" JUNE SIMMS: Most art exhibits have a no-touch policy. At the Smithsonian Institution, guards often give a warning if people position themselves too close to works of art. But, right now, the Smithsonian's National Museum of American Art 2 is inviting visitors to play with parts of its new exhibit, "The Art of Video Games." Mario Ritter has our story. MARIO RITTER: Six-year-old gamer Jacob Smith enjoys playing at the museum. JACOB SMITH: "Awesome." Jacob was prepared to take a favorite video game he found there. JACOB SMITH: "I was really excited. I think that you could buy games here. Like I have some money." But none of the eighty games are for sale. They all are on loan from Chris Melissinos, who set up the show. CHRIS MELISSINOS: "Video games have been present in my life since as long as I can remember." Chris Melissinos sees video games as more than just play things. He suspects other people feel the same way.

  • Steve Earle & the Dukes' J.T., Set for January 4, 2021 Release Via New
    Steve Earle & The Dukes’ J.T., Set For January 4, 2021 Release Via New West Records November 18, 2020 (Los Angeles, CA) – On the forthcoming album, J.T., Steve Earle & The Dukes pay tribute to Steve’s late son, Justin Townes Earle (J.T.), who passed away on August 20, 2020 in Nashville. The album will be released digitally on what would have been Justin’s 39th birthday, January 4, 2021, via New West Records. “The record is called J.T. because Justin was never called anything else until he was nearly grown. Well, when he was little, I called him Cowboy,” explains Steve Earle. “For better or worse, right or wrong, I loved Justin Townes Earle more than anything else on this earth. That being said, I made this record, like every other record I’ve ever made... for me. It was the only way I knew to say goodbye.” Today, as the album pre-order launched, Steve shared the track “Harlem River Blues.” Listen HERE. Fans who pre-order J.T. in digital format will instantly receive “Harlem River Blues.” The CD and vinyl editions of the album will follow on March 19, 2021. The poignant “Harlem River Blues” is one of Justin’s best-known compositions and took Song of the Year honors at the 2011 Americana Music Awards ceremony following Justin’s win in the Emerging Artist of the Year category in 2009. Check out Justin’s original recording of “Harlem River Blues,” which was the title track of his 2010 album, HERE. J.T. finds Steve Earle & The Dukes covering 10 of Justin’s songs – from “I Don’t Care,” which appeared on his 2007 debut EP, Yuma, and a trio of selections from his full-length debut album, The Good Life (“Ain’t Glad I’m Leaving,” “Far Away In Another Town” and “Lone Pine Hill”) to later compositions like 2017’s “Champagne Corolla” and 2019’s “The Saint Of Lost Causes,” which was the title track of Justin’s eighth and final studio album.

  • If You Want to Know How to Cure a Hangover, Ask a Musician, Especially One Who Has Recently Been in Rehab
    If you want to know how to cure a hangover, ask a musician, especially one who has recently been in rehab. “Pedialyte, that’s what you need,” Jason Isbell told me. He was standing outside a recording studio in suburban Nashville, lighting a cigarette. “It’s the stuff you give kids who are dehydrated from diarrhea. It’s like 10 Gatorades in one bottle.” Isbell is big and gregarious — he’s 6-1, 200 pounds — with wary, deep-set blue eyes that flash and size you up at the same time. On this early afternoon in February, those eyes were puffy and red-rimmed. He had only three days to finish “Southeastern,” his new album. He had four days until his wedding. Like Ray Liotta in the third act of “Goodfellas,” he was manic and barely sleeping. “Coffee and adrenaline,” he said. “They’ll see me through.” In the old days, this kind of stress would have sent Isbell, who is 34, into a tailspin. He found fame early and wasn’t ready for it. When he was 22, he joined the Drive-By Truckers, the brilliant and hard-living Alabama band. He quickly wrote several of the group’s signature songs, including the title cut of its 2003 album, “Decoration Day,” and a beautiful bummer of a tune called “Goddamn Lonely Love.” He almost as quickly burned out. His first marriage, to Shonna Tucker, the band’s bassist at the time, came unstitched in public. There were some ugly scenes. Isbell’s fondness for Jack Daniel’s did not become him.

  • Andrew Combs'​ Canyons of My Mind​ out Now on New
    ANDREW COMBS’ CANYONS OF MY MIND OUT NOW ​ ​ ON NEW WEST RECORDS FULL ALBUM PREMIERES VIA ALLMUSIC ​ ON TOUR NOW WITH MORE DATES TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON “One of Nashville’s most poetically gifted young singer-songwriters.” NPR Music ​ Andrew Combs’ anticipated New West Records debut, Canyons Of My Mind, is available now ​ digitally, on compact disc, and on 150g vinyl. The 11-song set was co-produced by Skylar Wilson (Justin Townes Earle, Caitlin Rose) & Jordan Lehning (Rodney Crowell, Caitlin Rose) and recorded at Battle Tapes Studio in East Nashville, TN. AllMusic premiered a full stream of ​ Canyons of my Mind last week stating that the album “continues to blur the line between country-influenced singer-songwriter material and lush, layered indie pop.” In a stellar 4 (out of 5) star review of the record, American Songwriter adds, “Gorgeous, sympathetic production ​ from Skylar Wilson and Jordan Lehning enhances these songs, adding the right balance of gravitas that, even with strings and backing vocals, never intrudes on Combs’ melodies...this is a superb, emotionally poignant album that displays and expands Andrew Combs’ impressive songwriting, musical and vocal talents.” Paste Magazine expounds on his vocal talents ​ commenting, “We often equate the greatest singers with the widest range, the ones that tremble and roar. Andrew Combs has never been loud. He doesn’t dress loud, he doesn’t seek controversy or even talk abrasively. And he’s never had to wail to crescendo an emotion. He does something very pure and hard to find: choosing harmony and orchestral elegance over excess. He sings in the vein of Harry Nilsson, Kris Kristofferson and James Taylor, artists whose work carries an element of effortless sincerity.
