Jonathan Bernstein
The authorized biography of singer-songwriter Justin Townes Earle.
Rolling Stone journalist Jonathan Bernstein, with the full cooperation of the Justin Townes Earle estate, unravels in these pages a short but incredibly creative life, and reveals the backstories behind Justin's greatest songs (Mama's Eyes, White Gardenias) and what happened when it all fell apart while also capturing a shadow world of the neglected children of Nashville legends who wrestle with the legacies of their hard-living, road-weary, often absent parents.
Justin's journey to near-stardom is a harrowing story shot through with moments of clarity and promise, including his marriage to his wife Jenn Marie Earle and the birth of their daughter. But what Earle called the myth- the idea that one must suffer for one's art - proved to be too powerful.
This heartbreaking, deeply researched tale is an exemplary music biography.
