Howdy folks. My name is George, I'm a graphic artist in Charleston, South Carolina.
I'm influenced by the likes of Tom Waits, Wilco, Radiohead, Bob Dylan, Mark Kozelek (Red House Painters, Sun Kil Moon), etc. I like music that's slightly (or exceptionally) odd, but still palatable.
Listen in, tell me what you think. Give me suggestions, feedback, criticisms, recommend music, whatever you want. Just happy to know ya.
George
Here's a video of myself and my pal Ben Johnson performing "I Held Her In My Arms" by the Violent Femmes.
GEORGE GETS SOME PRESS!!
Columbia's daily, "The State", ran a blurb about my June 8th gig in their Picks Of the Week section, written by Otis Taylor:
The text reads:
8 tonight: George Stevens at Cafe Strudel. Stevens, a USC student, doesn't want to be a full-time musician--or at least his MySpace bio claims as much. Still, Stevens' lack of seriousness is somewhat attractive because he doesn't sound self-important, overwrought or comical like, well, we don't need to name names here. Cafe Strudel is at 118 State St., West Columbia. (803) 794-6634.
Thanks Otis!
