THE STEPS
Born under the influence of classic rock in
the Live Music Capital of the World, The
Steps chisel through modern rock with 60's
sensibilities. The band made their recording
debut with a 7" vinyl single brought by
Young and Lost Club Records (UK),
followed by a tour of London. Their epony-
mous full length, produced by Chris
"Frenchie" Smith (Jet, Dandy Warhols) set
up a short tour of Japan, where the band
made several television and radio appear-
ances.
KEY HAPPENINGS:
Won Dell Lounge's The Sound and the
Jury contest, surpassing over 700 bands with
industry judges and online votes.
Toured England (Fall '07) and Japan
(Spring '08)
Performed at Austin City Limits Music
Festival 2007 and 2008.
Shared the stage with The Raconteurs,
Gnarls Barkley, and the Black Keys at the
NAMU Festival in Pittsburgh, PA.
Radio play on Austin's KROX, KLBJ,
KGSR
Appearances on Fox, CBS, ABC, NBC,
METV, Best Hit USA, Asahi TV Japan,
MTV Japan
Featured in Paste Magazine, Rolling Stone
Japan, Rockin' On, Sixties, Austin
Chronicle, Austin American Statesman,
Austin Monthly, The Morning Paper (Los
Angeles)
PRESS QUOTES:
The Steps are wise beyond their years, but
with the cocky swagger that comes with the
invincibility of youth (The Onion: AV Club)
Even more pronounced is the slowed down
blues-break thump of [Cold Floors] that
sounds like a reconfigured Beatles "I Want
You" on a sex date with the White Stripes.
The overall sound is a muscular offensive
mounted on the shoulders of what has come
before. William Thompson's vocals particu-
larly give the band a stiff shot of originality.
(The Morning Paper, Los Angeles)
The reality of The Steps' [album]: it's good.
It's not a little big good, or tolerable, or even
qualifying party music for American Apparel
staff parties. It's really, really good.
