On June 4th, 2024, Steve Earle came back to Songbirds for his annual summer fundraising solo acoustic show. But this time we paired his soulful tunes with the savory family-style BBQ feast put on by local restaurant, Elsie’s Daughter!
Before the concert, we sat down and interviewed Steve once again. Oh the stories this man can tell..
We told Steve about our new Write to Rock kids songwriting program and talked with him about the craft of songwriting, the challenges songwriters face, the success of some very famous singer/songwriters, and more!
