Washington Square Serenade, Steve Earle's 12th studio album, landed on New West Records on September 25, 2007, with John King producing. The Nashville-bred songwriter who broke through with Guitar Town keeps one boot in alt-country here but opens the door to company: his wife Allison Moorer sings with him on "Days Aren't Long Enough", and the Brazilian group Forro in the Dark kick up the dust on "City of Immigrants", the track the countdowns picked up.
There's a TV connection, too. Earle's recording of Tom Waits's "Way Down in the Hole" played over the opening of The Wire's fifth and last season on HBO, the same show where he turned up now and then as a character called Walon. In February 2008 the album won the Grammy for Best Contemporary Folk/Americana Album.
