Singer-songwriter Steve Young's incredibly smooth and powerful voice was memorably described by Tulsa World as "pure cream shot through a fire hose." This Georgia native plays American roots music that deftly interlaces his Southern heritage with blues, folk, country, and rock music, with side trips to Appalachia, Texas, and the Celtic world.

A true modern troubadour, Steve has taken his unique songs and lightning guitar playing throughout the world, and has written some of country music's most memorable hits. Many of these are included in his latest album, Songlines Revisited Volume One, on which Steve re-imagines some of his classic tunes, like "Montgomery in the Rain," written for Hank Williams Jr., the Waylon Jennings anthem "Lonesome, On'ry & Mean," and "Seven Bridges Road," recorded by folks from Dolly Parton to Joan Baez.
