On September 25, Steve Earle will release a new record via New West Records, entitled Washington Square Serenade. The album is his first with New West, as well as being his first since his move from Nashville to New York-the move that inspired the majority of material on the album.

Upcoming planned shows include dates at Bumbershoot in Seattle and the Austin City Limits Festival in Austin, as well as Earle’s return to his recurring spot on HBO’s The Wire.
