Steve Earles new album TOWNES, is his highly anticipated follow up to the Grammy Award winning album WASHINGTON SQUARE SERENADE. The 15-song set is comprised of songs written by Earles friend and mentor, the late singer/songwriter Towns Van Zandt. The songs selected for TOWNES were the ones meant the most to Earle and the ones he personally connected to. Earle recorded the New York sessions solo and then added the other instruments later on in order to preserve the spirit of Van Zandt's original solo performances to the best of his recollection.
