Steve MorrisonSteve Morrison

Steve Morrison has played guitar all his life. The exploration of guitar music from such an early age has created a musician whose performances appear effortless and natural. He is described as a master of open-chord tunings and he has a bottleneck technique that is fluid, sweet and original. While blues music has constantly inspired this musician his technique and writing style place him as an original.

His thumb is the powerhouse behind the rhythm that drives his music. His ability to hold the bass-line and chords, while adding melody lines that sing, make his guitar playing complete. His songs are socially astute and heartfelt and delivered by a warm rich voice all his own. With songs of humour sadness and protest this is one blues musician not stuck down at the crossroads.

In October 2008 Steve spent a day in producer Mike Westrgaard's 'Studio 99' to record a live session with percussionist/drummer Mark Walker. They recorded 13 songs without overdubs full of energy and spontaneity. "That was a good day at the office". The CD is due for release in early 2009.
