Shooter Jennings to Release “The Wolf” – 10/23/07

Posted on by — No Comments ↓

Singer/songwriter and heir to the outlaw tradition Shooter Jennings continues to mark his territory (sorry, had to do it)
in country music with the release of his third studio disc – The Wolf – on October 23, 2007.

Jennings wrote nine of the 13 tracks for this third project showing a more personal side of songwriting and giving
fans a more introspective look at the singer’s personal struggles and triumphs.

Several standout tracks on The Wolf, which was produced by Dave Cobb, include the autobiographical country blues tinged
title cut, as well as “Slow Train” featuring guest vocals by iconic country
music group The Oak Ridge Boys and a tribute to best friends everywhere, “Old Friend.”

Fans can get a sneak peak of what’s to come from the new album out on the road, where Jennings and his band the
357’s will give a taste of things to come.

Steve Earle To Host Sirius Radio Show

Posted on by — No Comments ↓

From Harp.com – SIRIUS satellite radio has just announced that country-rock legend Steve Earle will host a weekly show on the Outlaw Country station, channel 63.

The Steve Earle Show: Hard Core Troubadour Radio will be a one hour program featuring Earle’s personal music selections as well as on-air interviews with special guests. In more than thirty years of music-making, Earle has been nominated 11 times for a Grammy award, and has one win for The Revolution Starts Now in 2005. Earle has recently been in the studio recording his upcoming album on New West Records, with producer John King of The Dust Brothers, and also had a weekly show on Air America which he is leaving for his new gig at SIRIUS.

Outlaw Country was created by Little Steven Van Zandt and is home to the equally maverick likes of Shooter Jennings and Cowboy Jack Clement. Earle’s program will be broadcast Saturdays at 8pm ET and can also be heard Sundays at 1am and 9am and Monday nights at midnight.

I wonder if Sirius will give Earle the long leash that Air America did when he goes off on the powers that be. They will if they’re smart. Steve Earle’s politics are as much a part of what results in his extraordinary talent as his heroin use and obnoxious attitude. Let Earle be Earle. Let him rant and rave about the carpetbagger boy-king W and play some of the best music ever to travel the galaxy.
