Description
In his debut full length 'The Good Life', now available again and one of eight full length recordings, Earle blended genres seamlessly, framing his songs in warm musical settings and creating tunes that could easily be mistaken for classics.
"I started out to make an old timey country record, but I listen to so many other kinds of music," Justin explained. "Some of the songs were rearranged on the spot and took on other lives and album is now more of an exploration of southern music." Earle approached universal topics like traveling and matters of the heart ("Hard Living", "The Good Life") with the same fervor with which he evoked the bleak loneliness of a Civil War soldier on "Lone Pine Hill"
