Steve Bassett

Welcome to the official myspace music presence for Steve Bassett, legendary southern rock and roll/blue eyed soul singer/songwriter, Hammond B-3 player, and independent recording artist. His albums have featured such friends as Jerry Wexler, Elliott Randall, Tom Roady, Delbert McClinton, Ed King, Tony Joe White, Jim Horn, Don Wise, James Pennebaker, Rick Darnell, Terry Townson, Kevin McKendree, Larry Byrom, Kelvin Holly, Randy McCormick, Bob Babbitt, Jimmy Nalls, Mike Henderson, T. Graham Brown, Clifford Curry, Jimmy Black, and Roger Hawkins, David Hood, Barry Beckett and Jimmy Johnson of The Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section. His accomplishments include being the co-author of "Sweet Virginia Breeze", southern soul music chart-topper, and first call singer of national network commercial jingles.

"Steve Bassett's musical style is a synthesis of America's root music; blues, r&b, gospel, and rock & roll. Not only does Steve have a true feeling for the blues, he is a master of the gospel idiom, and in this combination of talents he is just about unique in music. He is a singer's singer and he communicates with his audience in a soulful front porch manner that crosses markets and generations and leaves his listener feeling like he has sung to them alone."
