About the bo-stevens

OUR NEW CD, A LITTLE MORE ROAD, IS now available at Winston-Salem Border's, Ed McKays and Record Exchange. ALSO AVAILABLE online at iTunes, CDBABY.com and DIGSTATION.com

Who are the bo-stevens?

The roots of this roots band go deep. Richard Boyd came to love the Tele twang and pedal steel swells of Honky Tonk at his father’s knee. Who, in the 50's, recorded two country songs a few doors down from the art studio where the bo-stevens got their start. Shortly after that first gig Scott Brandenburg and Greg Bell joined Richard, Jeff Shu and Mark Peurifoy to become the bo-stevens.

In 2004, replacing Scott, Andy Mabe brought his standup bass talents to the ensemble and the group released Can’ts Never Could, a mix of original songs and old-school covers, which was lauded in the local press for its unvarnished honesty and retro leanings.

July 2006 marked the debut of Billie Feather on bass and on September 8, 2007 the band celebrated the release of A Little More Road, another journey through Richard and company’s old-school sound. Mark left the band shortly after the cd release to spend more time with his growing family and the Rev. Doug Hawkins joined in 2008 to round out the motley cast.

KEEP IT COUNTRY.
