About Me |
|
| Todd Steed is originally from Knoxville and has never escaped,… completely. After years of touring and recording with Smokin’ Dave, Opposable Thumbs, and also Apelife, Steed has now happily settled in with his current lineup, Todd Steed and the Suns of Phere.Their latest record, 'Heartbreak and Duct Tape' (Disgraceland), was released in July 2005 and is already gathering great reviews. The record includes the much loved “Freebird 2” that has become a staple of the Suns of Phere live show. Steed explains that instead of a grand theme For Heartbreak and Duct Tape, this time he decided to simply go with the best songs he could write.“Heartbreak and Duct Tape is basically a collection of the best songs we have at the moment. These songs have worked well live and I think the studio versions do them justice, if not improve them. If there is a theme it’s probably about life and change in the South. This is where I live so this is what I write about. And as always, it’s about the joyous escape from everyday crap and modern boredom, the south of soul, so to speak. So yeah, I am fascinated by the various souths. That's a lot of what Knoxville Tells was about. You just got to make peace with where you are and who you are. Or not." | |
