STOP! - Steve Hill Live
- 11 years ago
This episode of the STOP! - DJ Blues show features Montreal Blues man Steve Hill playing some of the songs off his new album "Solo Recordings Volume 1".
Hill got an early start as a professional guitar player at the age of 16. By the time he was 20 he was already doing more than 200 gigs a year, which lead to the success of his first album in 1997. The album was voted Best Canadian Debut Recording by Vancouver's Real Blues magazine who also proclaimed Hill to be the best young Blues guitar player in North America!
In 2012, Hill revisited the blues with the album "Solo Recordings Volume 1″. Probably his rawest album ever, it features Hill not only on guitar and vocals, but also on bass drum, hi-hat, shakers and whatever he can do with his feet at the same time that he plays guitar and sings! Recorded live in the studio (with NO overdubs), it's the sound of a man that has lived through a lot. 15 years after his first album, you can hear and feel a maturity that can only exist out of experience.
