The Steel Wheels

“For close to two decades, The Steel Wheels have been pushing the boundaries of Americana, and Sideways stands as a testament to their evolution.” -Relix

“These folks are the real deal, and they put on a hell of a live show too.” -American Highways

“Safe to say that the band is pushing boundaries with Sideways! Though they started as an all-acoustic group, they have slowly incorporated more electronic and produced elements into their sound. The result? An engaging and surprising mix (the percussion beats against the banjo picking is absolutely irresistible) that’s hard to resist; I found myself listening straight through the album on repeat.” -Folk Alley

“The band plays whack-a-mole with bluegrass, gospel, blues, pop, country, and rock, bopping those varmints upside the head every time they pop up till they all lie down together peacefully.” -No Depression

“The Steel Wheels live up to their name in the most remarkably positive, tasteful, and sensitive way. Their lyrics have a heartfelt, hard truth, yet resilience and positivity win through every time.” -Americana UK

“They no longer simply play acoustic instruments and have evolved from being a string band; the lyrics have gotten more ambitious and their sound has matured impressively, but they are still a band from Appalachia that have chosen to go it their own way” -Glide Magazine
