Can't say I know who he is, but I recognise the name of his father from this track in True Detective

Steve Earle also played Bubbles sobriety buddy in The Wire.

Justin's music is good if you like the new retro/roots revival sound that's been coming up over the last 10 years or so. I haven't gotten too far into his discography myself, but I guess no time like the present.
