Archive material and source history
Rodney Crowell grew up in Texas and started playing guitar young. He moved to Nashville in the early 1970s and began writing songs for other artists, including Emmylou Harris and Johnny Cash. His own debut album came out in 1978.
Crowell's songs like 'After All This Time' and 'Ashes By Now' show his way with straightforward lyrics about relationships and everyday life. He's worked with various musicians over time, including Rosanne Cash and Steve Earle, and has released albums such as 'Ain't Living Long Like This' in 1981 and 'Texas' in 2019.
His music doesn't fit neatly into one category, drawing from country, folk, and rock without making a show of blending them. He's kept writing and recording, putting out 'Tarpaper Sky' in 2014 and continuing to work with players like guitarist Will Kimbrough.
