Steve Earle (born January 17, 1955) is a musician who grew up in Shertz[?], Texas. He was born in Ft. Monroe, Virginia[?] and was the eldest son of an air traffic controller.

Earle managed to land himself in trouble by writing a song about John Walker Lindh (John Walker's Blues on Jerusalem) written from Lindh's perspective. Some critics had some trouble comprehending that a songwriter isn't necessarily the character they're describing and branded Earle a traitor and a Taliban supporter. The controversy did however manage to raise Earle's profile in the media and didn't seem to damage his record sales in the slightest.
