Band Profile
With the help of the most agreeable backing band in the world “The Yes Men.” Stephen McEwan has released his first solo recording “Fall from Grace” Musically, covering many roots-based genres. Folk, funk, country & blues.
There is something for everyone in this collection of original songs.
Lyrically, Stephen writes about people, places and issues that have affected him on his life’s journey. Snippets of life in a small town. From the characters in your favourite drinking hole, to the eternal riddle of the differences between sexes. An under-lying sense of humour is balanced with more serious lyrical moments.
Songs from the heart, songs from the head, songs for dancin’ feet. This is the philosophy that embodies Stephens live performances. Sourcing material from his current CD and past recordings with ‘The Bibbits. As well as original takes on a few well chosen covers. Stephens versatile vocals take you on a compelling musical journey. Space and subtly or in your face rockin’ out.
