JANUARY 28,
2011 - In my interview with multi-instrumentalist and singer
songwriter STEVE STEELE, he expressed concern over the fact that no one
had asked him about the meaning behind the title of his latest CD
THE EXPAT. The title is short for the word
'expatriate'. STEELE's latest album explores the notion of being a
stranger in a strange land. In STEELE's case, the strange land is his
hometown of Houston. While the young singer songewriter is of the
mindset that he's got to get out of this place, his surroundings have
also provided a great deal of the inspiration behind his music. Taking
his queue from DAVID BOWIE'sclassic albums LOW and HEROES, STEELE has
created an ambient rock sound that is epic in scope and
sonically mesmerizing. ADVERTiSEMENT:

LUSH holds a BA in Creative Writing from the UNIVERSITY OF
NEW MEXICO. He established ROCKWIRED on New Years of 2004 and hasn’t
looked back
since. He is currently the host of all of ROCKWIRED.COM's programming
which includes such shows as ROCKWIRED RADIO PROFILES and ROCKWIRED
FREE FORM RADIO. As
program producer for ROCKWiRED.COM, LUSH is hands-on when it
comes to
interviewing and building a lasting rapport with the artists that come
ROCKWiRED’s
way. As a youngster, BRIAN LUSH had no idea what kind of seed was being
planted
by reading magazines such as HIT PARADE, HIGH TIMES, SPIN, REQUEST
(remember
that one?) and even ROLLING STONE.
“Those were the days before the internet and being a rock journalist
looked
like the coolest job imaginable.” says LUSH “But reading these
magazines had me
imagining that one day I’d be the artist giving all of the clever
answers to
some poor guy with a tape recorder. Well, life has a way of surprising
you.
Now, I’m the poor guy with the tape recorder and asking all of the
questions.”
