Nestled halfway between the blues rock bombast of Ash Grunwald and the genre-mixing folk-roots wizardry of Jeff Lang, Australian steel guitarist KIER STEVENS knits together a raucous weave of hurtful hollering and gutsy guitar work that can take you from old-timey acoustic blues sounds to screaming steel solos and black ballads and then back home via exotic improvisations.
Sometimes sober listeners at venues and festivals (including Tanglewood, Matsumura, Renaissance, MONA, and MordiFest), have variously described his original compositions as bung blues, dirty swamp rock, and even psychedelic bluegrass.
Originally hailing from Hobart, KIER STEVENS is now a regular fixture on the Melbourne music scene writing and performing with several original music acts on dobro, guitar, and pedal steel.
