Born under the influence of classic rock in the Live Music Capital of the World, The Steps chisel through modern rock with 60’s sensibilities. With searing guitar leads from Sam Thompson backed by the infectious rhythms from drummer Z Lynch and bassist Stephen Ross, The Steps capture all the hooks of early Brit-rock. Front man Will Thompson completes the package with the snarl and swagger of a young Mick Jagger.

Darlings of the Austin independent rock scene, The Steps inked their first deal while still in their tender teens; a 7’ vinyl single, Outlaw, on Young and Lost Club Records UK (2007). The band’s eponymous debut, produced by Frenchie Smith (Jet, Dandy Warhols), garnered immediate international attention. In the Spring of 2008, Kurofune Records (Japan) and Playing in Traffic (US) teamed up for a release of the album followed by tours to the UK, Japan, and back.

The Steps continue to floor audiences with their incendiary live shows at home and abroad, supporting such acts as Bob Dylan,The Black Keys, The Raconteurs, Los Lonely Boys, What Made Milwaukee Famous, and The Parlor Mob.

Impossibly young (in their late teens) for the level of competence and maturity of their sound, The Steps draw on a collection of influences from a wide time span to create a new and fresh sound.more at morningpaper.typepad.com

What a way to kick off Saturday at ACL! The BMI stage is usually the domain of singer songwriters, but Austin’s great teen hopes, the Steps, rocked like they were headlining Wembley Stadium. more at austin360.com
