Earle, a seasoned performer known for his gravelly, gritty voice and timeless performances has become a staple in the American folk and rock scenes. Earle & the Dukes recently released their 20th studio album on January 4, titled J.T., a tribute to Earle’s late son, Justin Townes Earle, who passed in August of 2020 of an accidental overdose.
This tour won’t be one to miss, as 100 percent of the artist advances and royalties from the featured album, J.T., are being donated to a trust for Etta St. James Earle, Justin and Jenn Earle’s three-year-old daughter.
