Master storyteller Earle has just released his first album for New West Records – after a rare three year break from recording. Check out Uncut’s 4-star review of Washington Square Serenade here.

Earle’s wife, singer-songwriter Allison Moorer, joins him on the tender duet “Days Aren’t Long Enough,” which they co-wrote.

As well as touring, Earle is continuing with his recurring role as ‘Waylon’ in US TV show ‘The Wire’ as well recording a cover of Tom Waits‘ ‘Way Down In The Hole’ as the series theme song.
