Singer/songwriter Steve Earle will
release his New West debut, "Washington Square Serenade," on
September 25,. The 12-track set was produced by the Dust
Brothers' John King and features a duet with Earle's wife,
Allison Moorer, on the track "Days Aren't Long Enough."
Also included on the album is a cover of Tom Waits' "Way
Down in the Hole," which doubles as the theme song for the HBO
series "The Wire," on which Earle stars. The Brazilian group
Forro In The Dark guests on the track "City of Immigrants."
"Washington Square Serenade" will be available as a deluxe
edition with a bonus DVD, including a walking tour of New
York's Greenwich Village area with Earle and a
behind-the-scenes documentary.
Earle, who is also writing his first novel for Houghton
Mifflin, will tour this fall. A handful of shows are on tap so
far, including appearances at Seattle's Bumbershoot Festival
and Austin, Texas' Austin City Limits in September.
