DESCRIPTION

Recorded in Los Angeles at Dave Grohl's Studio 606, produced by 10 X Grammy Winner Darrell Thorp (Foo Fighters, Radiohead, Paul McCartney) and mastered by 6 X Grammy Winner Michael Romanowski, Steve Hill's latest album is as close to the heart as you can get. Decades of dedication to the lifestyle of a working musician have shaped him and his craft, and Steve's new batch of songs are based on his own successes and failures and the life lessons he's learned from them.

Award-winning and critically acclaimed Canadian blues rock one-man band, guitarist and singer-songwriter, Steve Hill imagines his newest album Hanging on A String will feel like a concept album, set in a dystopian world where music is the only salvation.

The funny thing is that it's not set in the distant future, it's right here and now, and the hero is not a made-up character, it's just Steve doing what he's been doing for decades.

Its themes are both very personal and universal. It's about a one-man blues-rock band trying to make a living and dealing with accidents and bumps in the road and forging ahead no matter what. It's about the life of a musician as it gets harder to tour in these post-pandemic times, as radio stations fall by the wayside, and as A.I. takes over the streaming sites.

A prolific touring musician, Steve performs standing up while singing and playing guitar, his feet playing bass drum, snare drum and with a drum stick fused to the head of his trusty guitar to hit the hi-hats and a cymbal. Germany's Guitar Magazine proclaimed Steve as "the most spectacular one-man band on the planet."
