"Who is this guy?"

I guess he's the Token Country Music Leftie the media interviews when the Dixie Chicks are busy servicing Jay-Z and Beyonce.

Earle began learning the guitar at the age of 11 and was placed in a talent contest at his school at age 13.[4] He is reported to have run away from home at age 14 to follow his idol, singer-songwriter Townes Van Zandt, around Texas.[8] Earle was “rebellious” as a youngster and dropped out of school at the age of 16. He moved to Houston with his 19-year-old uncle, who was also a musician, where he married and worked odd jobs. While in Houston Earle met Van Zandt, who became his hero and role model.[4][7] Earle’s sister, Stacey, is also a musician and songwriter.

Whenever I hear Trump called that, I always wonder just what it is that makes him a fascist. I know the definition, and he doesn’t fit it. Unless it means “anyone who disagrees with me.” In which case, I can see how libs would consider him one.

After his prison stint most of his “popularity” was due to his PC politics, IMO. The music press is always pushing lib musicians.

Looks like a criminal who liked to think he could sing.

Excerpt:

“Earle has been married seven times, including twice to the same woman.[33] He married Sandra “Sandy” Henderson in Houston at the age of 18, but left her to move to Nashville a year later[7] where he met and married his second wife, Cynthia Dunn. Earle married his third wife, Carol-Ann Hunter, who gave birth to his son, singer-songwriter Justin Townes Earle.[7]

Next, he married Lou-Anne Gill (with whom he had a second son) and then his fifth wife, Teresa Ensenat, who was an A&R executive for Geffen Records at the time.[8] Earle then married Lou-Anne Gill a second time, and finally, in 2005, married singer-songwriter Allison Moorer with whom he had a son, John Henry Earle, in April 2010.[34] John Henry was diagnosed with autism before turning 2. In March 2014, Earle announced that he and Moorer had separated.[35]

In 1993 Earle was arrested for possession of heroin and in 1994, for cocaine and “weapons possession”.[4][36][37]”

Vastly overrated musician. Seemed to have a bit of a following among the stoner crowd, but never made it big. Will probably manage enough gigs to get maintain his habit, an will likely suffer an early demise.
