Steve Earle is an American singer-songwriter, well known for his rock and country music, as well as his political views. He is also a published writer, a political activist and playwright. In his early career, he was seen as a savior of country music and hailed by some as the "new Bruce Springsteen." In the later part of his career, after troubles with the law, drug addiction and his uncompromising viewpoints, he has become known as "the hardcore troubadour". On May 12, 2009, Earle will release a tribute album, "Townes", on New West Records. The album contains 15 songs written by his late friend and musical mentor Townes Van Zandt. Guest artists appearing on the album include Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine, Earle's wife Allison Moorer, and his son Justin Townes Earle. Steve Earle's songs have appeared in many major motion pictures and television - and he has received 13 Grammy nominations and 2 wins for Best Contemporary Folk/Americana Album in 2005 and 2008.
