Steve’s second release is a wonderful collection of primarily country blues tunes done in his heartfelt style with the regional authenticity he brings to the music. Featuring the stellar rhythm section work of Joe Osborn, the legendary studio bassist, and Joe’s son, Darren, playing most of the drum parts, engineering, mixing and mastering, Steve has produced another work of great songs interpreted in his soulful vocal style and solid fingerstyle approach to the guitar. What the critics say about Steve: “Steve Howell is a warm singer and excellent guitarist” - Blues & Co. Magazine (France) “Howell shows a delicate balance of respect and admiration for his source material while still taking it to a new place for us.” - Southwest Blues “Howell's vocals easily glide over the music, but with enough character to make these interpretations his own.” - Living Blues “The natural ease of Steve’s Chet Atkins-styled picking and the jazz trio format seamlessly blends these artifacts of Americana together.” - Offbeat “Steve presents his songs with an uncommon feel for the past music of days gone by.” - Roots Music Report “Of all my fingerpicking friends, Steve is the fingerpickingest." - Joe Osborn (legendary bassist who has played on hundreds of Top 40 pop, rock and country hits)
