🟢 STEVE EARLE
Steve Earle is one of the most acclaimed singer-songwriters of his generation, a worthy heir to Townes Van Zandt and Guy Clark, his two supreme musical mentors. Over the course of twenty studio albums, Earle has distinguished himself as a master storyteller, and his songs have been recorded by a vast array of artists, including Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Joan Baez, Emmylou Harris, the Pretenders, and more.
Earle’s 1986 debut album, Guitar Town, is now regarded as a classic of the Americana genre, and subsequent releases like The Revolution Starts...Now (2004), Washington Square Serenade (2007), and TOWNES (2009) all received Grammy Awards.
Restlessly creative across artistic disciplines, Earle has published both a novel and a collection of short stories; produced albums for other artists; and acted in films, TV shows, and on stage.
He currently hosts a radio show for Sirius XM. In 2019, Earle appeared in the off-Broadway play Samara, for which he also wrote a score that The New York Times described as “exquisitely subliminal.”
Each year, Earle organizes a benefit concert for the Keswell School, which his son John Henry attends and which provides educational programs for children and young adults with autism.

Yes, Steve, we know what acid means. Glad you can pronounce a big word.

[@KittyCarlile-490]

"that's a real drug" 😊

[@wildestcowboy2668]

Good musician
Terrible liar....

[@DazeyChaineMusic]

Yup

[@DazeyChaineMusic]

Terrible person arguably

[@bldallas]

I was a huge fan from Guitar Town thru El Corizon. Saw him many times live. I cringe when I watch him being interviewed now, though. The stories get more and more extreme. I’ve heard the drug stuff a hundred times but straight to injecting H at 13, is a newer version on the old tail. And massive amount of LSD? Massive. It just doesn’t add up. Hell yes he’s an addict, but I do believe he’s also a braggart and story teller. I guess you can call him a liar. Either way, like I said, he’s hard to listen to these days.

[@BevTurner-qw8hs]

Hmm? Still looking fame. Sad

[@TheSands83]

Addicted to LSD? Thats bullshit.. Heroin is something you get addicted to.

[@mattjohnson5197]

Yo. Fuck you haha you can’t decide what someone is addicted to? What a weird way to go about life

[@TheSands83]

@@mattjohnson5197 decide? It’s fucking common sense. U don’t become addicted to acid…

[@Rooputanatacin]

Every mind altering substance can be addictive. Its about losing your mind and im sure Mr Earle had something to run from. I know from myself as being a drug addict at 13 years of age. It ain't normal to live that way at that age. Alcohol is most of the time the biggest problem.

[@TheSands83]

@@Rooputanatacin I don’t agree with that. I’ve never seen in all my years in and out of rehab seen someone come in being addicted to lsd🤣 or shrooms. It might b a Habit if u start taking more of it ..but addicted? No that’s bullshit.

[@LovesickBluesBoi]

I wouldn't agree, you can get addicted to acid, in a different way. Before I discovered acid I'd do speed, MDMA, pills. Always with tons of whiskey. I have an addictive personality, and struggled with substances since I remember. I started drinking at thirteen, and the feeling was amazing, I fell in love, like I knew what I want to do. That continued, with age I just added more things, but my favourite was whiskey and speed. Fast forward to two years ago, I started getting sober-ish, did my first shrooms, then acid, and that changed a lot. I don't do speed, MDMA, pills, coke etc. I still have my struggles with alcohol, but thanks to acid and mushrooms I've stopped hard drugs, stopped smoking ten joints daily. It can hook you up, but at the same time it gives you a perspective on your own life, and helps you dig deeper inside yourself, your soul. I have a better understanding of myself and my problems. It's like a year of therapy in one night on acid, if you want to do the work. I don't drop it just to trip balls, but i do like tripping balls when I'm done with the work. Luckily, I always knew I can't do heroin. I always felt that once I'd try, I'd never stop.
