JUSTIN TOWNES EARLE - ALL IN: Unreleased & Rarities - The New West Years - CD [SEP 27]

CD - Digipak with booklet.  

Justin Townes Earle - ALL IN: Unreleased & Rarities (The New West Years) is a fitting tribute to Justin's legacy - The collection features many never heard before songs, demos, and cover tunes, spanning his time as a New West Records recording artist

Kids In The Street, his first record on New West Records, in May of 2017 - The album received critical acclaim and further cemented Justin's legacy as one of the best active songwriters in music - Songs like, "Champagne Corolla" showcased his wry sense of humor as well as his deft ability to build upon the music that came before him while at the same time creating something unique and new. Familiar, inventive, creative, and clever.

Justin would release his second album with New West Records in May of 2019. The Saint of Lost Causes was hailed as one of the best albums of 2019 by Rolling Stone Magazine with "half a dozen or so career classics." "I was trying to look through the eyes of America," Earle says. "Because I believe in the idea of America - that everybody's welcome here and has a right to be here." Earle tells these American stories in detail and without judgement. While some songs cite historic events like "Flint City Shake It," and "Don't Drink The Water," other tracks present fictionalized narratives that are no less harrowing, or true-to-life , as heard in "Appalachian Nightmare," "The Saint Of Lost Causes," and "Over Alameda."

Justin Townes Earle was always a champion of the underdog and All In features in depth looks at the hopeful, and the hopeless. Fueled by empathy, baked in the blues, Justin was never without something poignant or humorous to say. Sadly, Justin passed away in 2020 at the age of 38.
