Organizer’s description
You should already know these songs. If the old saying about talent equaling success were true, then The Steepwater Band would already be a household name, rubbing shoulders with Aerosmith, Bad Company and other like-minded travelers in our collective Rock n Roll Fantasy. But thats not how things always work, and this band knows it and still leans into it, smiling, with everything in them, not for brass rings and marquees, but because they must! For them, the music life is a calling and not some stupid costume one puts on to shake loose gold, fame, and groupies. In a land of caricatures, its striking to come face-to-face with the real thing. Something primal lurks in their music, but always wrestling with emotions and stories that are everyday-ready ~ music at once strut-inducing sexy and brass knuckles honest, a sound evolved smartly ve been welcomed since 1998. AC/DC once said, If you got the dollar, we got the song / Just wanna boogie woogie all night long, and The Steepwater Band surely embodies this lip-smacking urge to get some in this mean old world, befitting the groups Chicago roots and their earthy understanding of crackling city blues. The abiding, resounding passion inside this band is never in question. Dive into their seemingly endless catalog of songs just about anywhere, and the heart and muscle pumping away inside every track are palpable and present in a most pleasing way.
