Steve Liddell's groove-laden soul rock and handcrafted acoustic songs give this singer-songwriter an honest folk appeal that helps him win over audiences wherever he performs.
Steve Liddell is a singer-songwriter from Tulsa, OK, who brings his own brand of original music, mixing Rock, Folk, Jazz, Reggae, and Roots/Americana. Liddell writes songs from the heart that speaks to listeners as he shares his experiences of love and loss and redemption.
Building off diverse influences from the past and more recent ones Steve Liddell blends his love for all types of music and adds African and Latin rhythms to create a sound reminiscent of his influences but still his own. Liddell’s sound is influenced by Soul and Rock music, as well as the different types of World Music he has come in contact with on his world travels.
Six years performing his music, this artist has successfully promoted himself regionally in Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana, Kansas, Missouri and Arkansas and performed during SXSW in Austin in 2004-2007. As well as playing shows from coast to coast and on the islands of Hawai'i, Liddell has also performed in the world famous city of Rio de Janerio, Brazil and recently toured the East Coast and the UK in the Spring '07.
Liddell’s awards include Spot Music Award for Best Singer-Songwriter 2006, and a nomination for the 2006 Spot Music Award Best Album of the Year for his much anticipated record GOODLOVE.
"The gift of Liddell's music is that he's adept at blending styles and making it come out with a breezy, comforting quality. His jazzy, world-beat vibes go down smooth and he has the songs and voice to hold court wherever he goes." says Gary Hizer, Music Editor for the Urban Tulsa Weekly.
Matt Gleason, Music Writer at the Tulsa World Spot Magazine, says "...Steve Liddell's vocals travel light and passionately over vibrant, groove-oriented landscape that evokes comparisons to Ben Harper, Jack Johnson and Paul Simon.
Steve Liddell's groove-laden soul rock and handcrafted acoustic songs give this singer-songwriter an honest folk appeal that helps him win over audiences wherever he performs.
