Biography

Justin Townes Earle (January 4th, 1982-August 20th, 2020) was a revered singer-songwriter known for his candid exploration of human vulnerabilities in his music. Hailing from Nashville, he played a pivotal role in shaping the Americana and roots music scene of the late 2000’s and early 2010’s. Earle's live performances, influenced by blues legends like Mance Lipscomb and Lightnin Hopkins, showcased his exceptional finger-picked guitar skills and earned him a reputation for electrifying shows alongside iconic musicians such as John Prine and Gillian Welch.

Tragically passing away at the age of 38 due to an accidental overdose amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, Earle's legacy lives on through his profound body of work. With eight albums and one E.P. released during his solo career, Earle's raw and honest songwriting continues to resonate with audiences worldwide, solidifying his status as a cherished figure in the music industry.
