Steve Earle (born Stephen Fain Earle on January 17, 1955 in San Antonio, Texas) is a singer-songwriter best known for his country music and rock 'n roll tinged "alt-country." He is also a published writer, a keen political activist (particularly in protesting against the death penalty in the U.S., as in his song "Ellis Unit One" from the movie Dead Man Walking), and has written and directed a play. Earle also had small roles on the HBO television shows "The Wire" and "Treme". Read more on Last.fm
This is my “drive and dream” record. Steve Earle uprooted from Nashville and headed up to the Big Apple. This album chronicles his decision and his journey. If you’ve ever wanted to break away, this is your jam.
