| Townes Album Coming Soon
Steve is set to release Townes, his highly anticipated follow up to the Grammy Award-winning album Washington Square Serenade, on May 12 via New West Records. The 15-song set is comprised of songs written by Earle's friend and mentor, the late singer-songwriter, Townes Van Zandt.
