The Corner

Early Times is a Blues/Rock street poet, living in a gritty urban landscape spanning the Eastside street corners, bodegas, and the project park, ' populated by characters like Little Hustler, Uptown Charlie, Tijuana Madonna, Sweet Lou the Butcher, Ruby, Shakey, funky old Mabel, and of course Mary with her Cha Cha hat. Early and his High Rollers create moods so thick you could cut them with a chainsaw, and his incisive guitar playing is always spot on.
