Troubadour Steve Earle returns to Australia, and performs at the Regal Theatre in Subiaco on Sunday 2 November 2008, with his wife Allison Moorer opening the show.

Steve Earle’s recorded music career has to date delivered twelve studio albums and five live albums. Steve has also written books both story and poetry and a stage play.
Asked how he would like listeners to respond to Washington Square Serenade, Earle, characteristically, is ready with a bold answer. “If you feel like you don’t know what America is all about right now, and you want to reorient yourself to what America should be about, it’s a really good time to come to New York City,” he says. “I needed really badly at this point in my life to see a mixed-race, same-sex couple holding hands in my own neighborhood. It makes me feel safer.”
“I’ve been pretty heartbroken about the way things have gone politically in this country the last few years, and I seriously considered moving someplace else,” he concludes. “Then I figured out that I didn’t have to leave the country. All I had to do was come to New York.”

Tickets on sale on 26 August through Ticketek.
