Justin Townes Earle set for Whelan's show

He's won an Americana Music Award, been named one of the 25 best dressed men in the world and appeared alongside his dad Steve in HBO's Treme - now he's coming to Dublin.

Modern Nashville troubadour Justin Townes Earle brings his Woody Guthrie-indebted songs to the Whelan's stage on January 25. His star is very much in the ascent, so this may prove a rare opportunity to catch his rock-infused country in such intimate surroundings.
