Description:
Steve Smith & the Meteors play old school blues; rooted in the Chicago tradition, Steve stays true to the Delta heritage, swinging jump blues, a dose of funk, and a little 50’s rock n’ roll/rockabilly.
Unlike almost every other blues performer, Steve writes his own material; a refreshing break from the “same old-same old”. Staying true to the genre, Steve’s music is original, yet traditional.
Steve is no Johnny-come-lately to the blues; while most blues players come from a rock background, Steve has always been true to the music. Steve’s roots run deep, but he is no slavish imitator; Steve is a long way past recitation. Having long ago learned the “language”, Steve’s music flows naturally - he communicates; his music is conversational.
