Steamrolling into the Pennsylvania Primary, Lewisburg-based singer/songwriter Earl Pickens picks up the crucial endorsement of Senator Barack Obama. More on the blog...

Earl Pickens and the Band Named Thunder open for Barack Obama in Lancaster! More on the blog...

If anyone has any good photos of our band onstage at the Lancaster Obama rally, we’d love to get our hands on them. The photos that is; not the person that has the photos. Although I can’t rule that out completely. Send pics to me via email at earl@earlpickens.com. THANKS!

Half futuristic hillbilly showman, half 2nd generation American antifolk hero, half enigmatic unicycling circus hypnotist, Earl Pickens has been sent to entertain; and not to destroy as some have suggested, the good people of this lonely planet. Earl writes songs, sings them, plays them for anyone who’ll listen, and makes quirky music videos to boot. Really, you can boot his music videos.

Earl’s current bands are Earl Pickens and the Band Named Thunder, and The Sweetbriars.
