Of his live shows and numerous studio recordings, its been said: He has a rare gift for using traditional forms with complete naturalness. In addition to decades of international touring, hes been heard on programs such as A Prairie Home Companion and NPRs Morning Edition and has implemented his commitment to sharing and propogating blues and roots music styles with numerous instructional books, videos, print and on-line lessons for guitar and mandolin.

For his SFS concert, Steve will be joined by his old friend and musical cohort Johnny Nicholas, a legendary singer and instrumentalist from Texas whose pedigree, in addition to his considerable solo output, includes stints with everyone from Robert Jr. Lockwood to Asleep At The Wheel.
