Steve Haggard
If you're already familiar with the music of Steve Haggard, you
already know that he's a truly original artist. Steve's sound is best described
as genuine American roots music, being a potent blend of rockin' country
flavored with blues, a dash of rockabilly, a bit of folk, and even a touch
of blue- grass occasionally. Steve is a man of many talents,being a fine
and very distinctive vocalist, a great songwriter, a superb producer, and
a talented musician. (In addition to playing guitar, he is a virtuoso blues
harmonica player.) Despite being on a small independent record label -- |

Wild Oats Records, of course !! -- "the other Haggard" has slowly-but-surely
built a legion of very devoted fans all around the world. Steve has played
in 15 countries, done 30 tours outside the USA,
and his CDs have picked up airplay in more than 20 countries and
been distributed on four continents. Still, like a lot of the best
artists, he has yet to receive the recognition that he deserves; a situation
we feel will change with release of his brand- new Wild Oats Records CD,
Mysterious Ways. (Released on March
21st, 2001 !!) Steve Haggard's talents have received glowing praise from
music journalists, as well as from a wide spectrum of music lovers. Steve
and his five-piece band are an exciting live act,
and he is a dynamic performer whether in a festival, club or concert
setting. |
