If you're familiar with
the music of Steve Haggard, then
you already know that he's
a truly original artist. Steve's
signature sound is best
described as "Genuine American
Roots Music", and is a
potent blend of Americana, rockin'
country, some down-home
blues, a little bit of folk, and a
dash of rockabilly. Steve
is a man of many talents: a fine,
distinctive vocalist, a
great songwriter, and an excellent
musician. (In addition
to playing the guitar & mandolin,
Steve is a virtuoso blues
harmonica player.) And over the
past decade or so, he has
become one of the top producers
around, winning acclaim
for his studio work in Nashville
with artists and bands
not only from the USA... but from
Canada, England, Norway,
Sweden, Finland & Germany.
Despite being on a small
independent label -- Nashville's
Renegade Record Label,
Wild Oats Records, of course!! --
Steve Haggard has built
a (growing) legion of extremely
devoted fans around the
world. He has done some 55 tours
outside of the USA and
played in 19 countries, performing
everywhere from Europe
to the Middle East. Steve's CDs
have picked up radio play
in over 20 countries, and been
distributed on five continents.
Steve's six Wild Oats Records
CDs -- his brand-new one,
Love Conquers All,
has just been released --have all won
glowing reviews from music
journalists here and abroad,
as well as praise from
a wide spectrum of music lovers.
He is a dynamic and inspiring
stage performer, whether
in a festival, concert
or club setting; whether playing in
a little roadhouse right
here in Tennessee, or to a crowd
of thousands at an outdoor
festival in Europe, Steve and
his band always deliver
an evening of great music.
Like many of the finest
artists, Steve Haggard has yet to
receive the full recognition
that he deserves, a situation
that is changing all the
time... as more and more people
hear his music, and become
aware of his talents. (If you
haven't heard Steve yet,
we strongly urge you to do so!)
Last, but certainly not
least, the always-busy Steve is the
co-host of a weekly radio
show in Nashville on WRFN.
