Steve Earle

Ever since Elvis' very first Sun Studios recording sessions, artists have been finding ways to bring the country and rock genres together.

An impressive roster of artists on the fringes of country and Americana will perform on board Outlaw Country Cruise 8 next year.

No doubt -- Earle has written some truly iconic songs.

They may be stars now, but some of country music's most popular performers really paid their dues in their early days.

The music business is a high-stakes, high-risk venture, and it's not unusual for things to wind up in court.

Steve Earle's 1986 album 'Guitar Town' will be reissued with new bonus material to celebrate its 30th anniversary.
