Steve Bonham SOLO |
MANIFESTO |
Live at The Harrison |
"I am a writer, musician and performer. For many years I have been a bit of a vagabond heading out ,mostly on my two feet along the backways and byways. There is a ‘truth’ in journeying that I find compelling - to take to the trail ‘opens’ you out to chance and serendipity - the wonderful world of accidental meetings and encounters. It’s about getting the dirt under your finger nails, the blisters on your feet in the quixotic compelling attempt to see the world through other eyes.
The outputs of this? Albums such as 'The Moon's High Tide , Songsmith and now with compadres in The Long Road: The Girl With The Rattlesnake Heart and Reliance. And books like A Little Nostalgia for Freedom and now , 'A Beautiful Broken Dream.'" |

“Steve earns the title of ‘Songsmith’ he has a feel for melody and mood and a knack of matching or contrasting words with the music…a mixture of ideas and styles that any aspiring songwriter should hear” RnR Magazine
