One of Canada’s most prolific and exciting guitarists, Steve
Hill has recorded the much anticipated follow-up to his JUNO nominated
Solo Recordings Volume 1, which also won album of the year at the International
Blues Challenge, held in Memphis in 2013. Solo Recordings Volume 2 is a step up
for Hill, embracing his roots and showcasing his talents and love of blues music
even further. Solo Recordings Volume 2 and its predecessor was recorded live in
the studio with Hill not only on guitar and vocals, but also on bass drum,
hi-hat, shakers and whatever he can do with his feet at the same time.
Featuring tracks that are heavy and hard hitting, deep and melodic, Hill
manages to nail a wide rage of emotions with his songwriting and masterful
guitar playing. With eight original songs and three covers, including Little
Walter's “Hate To See You Go”, Muddy Water's “I Want You To Love Me” and Ray
Bonneville's “Simple Things”, Solo Recordings Volume 2 is sure to please the
most discerning blues lovers and music fans in general.
This incredible release proves why the Montreal Gazette called Hill “the
meanest guitar player in Canada” and why Vancouver's Real Blues Magazine has
referred to him as “the best young Blues guitar player in North America.”
