Review

With material like this, he may even find a way to add a chapter to the
Great American Songbook. --Austin Chronicle
In many ways, it's his best work yet and does a great deal more to
solidify his growing reputation as one of America's premier songwriters. --Under the Radar
An album of melancholy and heartbreak that's at its best when the songs
fall between all-out country rock ballads and bare bones ballads. --Mojo
His voice remains packed with emotion and personality, but it has more range and takes more risks, as he whispers, slurs and moans like a midnight caller…His self-written songs, each as strong as the next, deal with family history, with the way loved ones shade the truth to each other, and with the downhill side of love and friendship. Somehow, through the confessionals and dark stories, a powerful light shines through. --Associated Press
Whether Nothing's Gonna Change.. goes down as the birth of alt-soul or not, the emotional and transformative power of these songs is undeniable and, stacked atop his past work, makes a strong case for Justin Townes Earle being one of today's most promising talents. --SF Chronicle
