It’s just heartbreaking. So much talent. This is my favorite. If you’ve never heard him, allow me to introduce you to Justin Townes Earle, singing his original tune “Mama’s Eyes” Live at Paste. RIP JTE. #JustinTownesEarle — Tim Kirkman (@timkirkman) August 24, 2020
I am crushed to hear Justin Townes Earle has died. I’m so sad. I saw Justin play multiple times but the first time at the Annandale when it was still a venue. He was so viciously alive. He was so beautiful and honest. So sexy. So raw. RIP.

Just learned that Justin Townes Earle has passed. The world has lost an amazing songwriter and a beautiful story teller. More importantly we have all lost a kind soul who will be sorely missed in a cold world. I am sorry you are gone JTE. RIP

“I think we’re in trouble. America as a whole, I think we’re in a lot of trouble. But this is our fault. I’m realizing that if it happens in America, we let it happen. What happened in Flint, we, Americans, we let it happen.”

There was a two year period where I thought I was done playing music for good. A friend turning me on to Justin’s Harlem River Blues record was a big reason why I picked up the guitar again. RIP Justin Townes Earle. Condolences to all who knew and loved him.

So sad to read about the death of Justin Townes Earle this morning. Tragic to see one so young gone so soon.
I was privileged enough to see him perform several times and we even met. He was really nice to me. I’m sad for his family and friends. RIP JTE— Jim MacGregor (@headofprogramme) August 24, 2020
I first perked up to Justin Townes Earle when he sang Look the Other Way on Letterman. Anytime Dave really liked an artist he couldn’t help but geek out and it was the best.
I saw him live in Mpls soon after and he was as raw as you could hope to imagine. RIP— Sarah (@sas6) August 24, 2020
Devastated at the loss of this beautiful artist and songsmith, the son of a dear friend. Can’t bear to stop playing “Harlem River Blues” tonight, but I almost can’t bear to listen, hearing it anew each time. Grievous.
— David Simon (@AoDespair) August 24, 2020
Woke up to this news this morning. Devastating. Saw JTE live and met him many times, brilliant songwriter and a warm, funny man. What a tragic loss at just 38. RIP Justin Townes Earle.
— Garry Consiglio (@gtc_1955) August 24, 2020
I am somewhat angry that those close to Justin Townes Earle could not have intervened and prevented his death. The last time I saw him in concert, I was shaken by the level of angst and depression he exhibited and how he was skin and bones. RIP, Justin. Your talent was enormous.
— World Gone Crazy (@WorldGoneCrazy2) August 24, 2020
Sad news about Justin Townes Earle. We played a handful of shows together over the years. He was a week younger than me but always felt like an older soul. A kind guy and a wonderful songwriter. RIP.
— Frank Turner (@frankturner) August 24, 2020
Just seen the news about Justin Townes Earle.
Sad news. I never got around to his work, but I love his father and he no doubt carried his and Hank Williams’ torch in a masterful way.
And Justin seemed like a really great and very, very cool guy#RIP @pangurdubh3 @kikmon

Justin Townes Earle. Gone way too soon. Heard “Champagne Corolla” the other day at Sheetz. RIP
— Nick Stupakis (@nickstupakis) August 24, 2020
Once when I saw Justin Townes Earle live, he proudly played some amazing guitar, recounting sardonically how a music reviewer had written a piece staring that that passage was actually played by two guitarists, not one as JTE had falsely claimed on his album. Then he laughed. RIP
— Penny Thompson (@postition) August 24, 2020
@herberthodgson I haven’t been on social media today. Just heard the news, how must Steve be feeling. So young.
RIP Justin Townes Earle— Pete Steinfort (@EJW_Stein) August 24, 2020
At a Steve Earle gig a few yrs ago he proudly told us Justin was writing some good songs, but still had more to learn. His love came across all the clearer for including that Dad thing of feeling his own duty was to keep the kid’s feet on the ground. RIP

Really sad to hear about Justin Townes Earle’s passing. I saw him live for the last time just last summer, a really memorable show – shambolic but hugely entertaining. He wore all of his flaws and vulnerabilities so openly and you had to root for him. RIP.

Horrendously sad news about Justin Townes Earle. An excellent songwriter who I’ve enjoyed seeing live and was always so welcoming when speaking to him after the shows. RIP

Really sad news from Sun overnight. RIP to 1 of best songwriters of our lifetime, 1 of best live performers ever, & musical hero Justin Townes Earle. If you’ve never heard of him listen to “Harlem River Blues” today. Here’s to finding more peace in passing than you did on Earth.
— Coach Nick (@coachnicktennis) August 24, 2020
I saw Justin Townes Earle open for a band maybe twelve years ago. He wasn’t on the ticket. They had called him in last minute to cover the spot. He played so fucking well that I can’t even remember who the main show was that night. It’s all our friends could talk about. #JTE #RIP
— Andy Lopez (@lightyears) August 24, 2020
Goodness, I am sad over this one. Midnight at the Movies was on constantly in Garrett & I’s room when I was 21 and depressed. It was such a solace of an album for that season. RIP Justin Townes Earle

Ten months ago, we went to see one of our favorite performers, Justin Townes Earle. His live shows were always at least ten times better than his albums. Our 12yo even saw him 11 years ago at the Cactus Cafe, an all ages venue. He was one of a kind, and his death is a blow. RIP?

When I was 21, I used to put this record on in G & I’s basement room. It was a lonely time & this was a solace during it. Perhaps it can be a reminder in this season that we’re not alone in our loneliness.
May we be the people we need each other to be.
RIP Justin Townes Earle.— Jack Droppers (@JackDroppers) August 24, 2020
He could create such vivid moments in song & build entire world in a single verse. There are countless examples, but this was the song that first made me a fan. #RIP Justin Townes Earle || Midnight at the Movies (Live on KEXP)

Oh my. So young. ? I didn’t know Steve Earle had a son.
Here’s one of my favourite songs by Steve. If you’re not a country fan, you may not like this, but please give it a whirl.
I’m going to check out Justin’s music.

RIP Justin Townes Earle — he left earth much too soon.
Here’s his best known song, Harlem River Blues, an upbeat gospel tune about a man drowning himself in order to get to heaven. It lands particularly heavy today.
Such a great voice & songwriter
