Limited-edition debut EP only available free with the purchase of The Good Life at participating CIMS and AIMS stores!

"For his six-song studio debut, it’s just him and his guitar, mandolin and harp. A strummy twang informs the gospellish “Absolute Angels Blues,” while the upbeat country-folk of “You Can’t Leave” finds Earle simultaneously cajoling and pleading with a woman in a voice that’s rich with vulnerability and suggestion. The surname 'Earle' may or may not impress you. But as the title track’s tragedy unfolds—it’s about a 23-year old who leaps off a building ('It wasn’t so much the girl/Guess it was the booze and the dope/And the way he took the weight of the world/Up upon his shoulders')—and Earle’s storytelling gifts become apparent, his middle name takes on a striking resonance, too. Bottom line: You won’t need a molecular biologist to help you spot this young man’s musical DNA." Fred Mills Harp Magazine
