STEVE AUSTIN is a rising force in traditional outlaw country music – an acclaimed songwriter, fiery guitarist, and magnetic performer whose journey from metal legend to heartfelt country storyteller has been nothing short of legendary. Born and raised on a horse farm in Lebanon, Tennessee, with deep family roots in the Appalachian hills of Chestnut Mound, he grew up surrounded by the raw sounds of Hank Williams Sr., Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, George Jones, David Allan Coe, Townes Van Zandt, Johnny Cash, and Neil Young. He picked up the guitar at age ten and spent countless hours trading old-time country songs with his father, Tillman Austin – a honky-tonk musician whose words and melodies would later light the spark for Steve’s return to his first love. Yet the pull of classic country never left. Inspired by his father’s songs, AUSTIN headed to the cold, icy winters of Orland, Maine (his current home) and poured three decades of life, loss, love, and hard-won hope into his debut full-length country album, Marked Cards And Loaded Dice. Rippin’ D-28 and D-18 guitar work drives intense rhythms and down-home solos. This is outlaw country the way it was meant to sound: real, raw, and unforgettable.
