Stevie Redstone

Stevie Redstone’s never been one to slow things down, but a change of pace proved to be just what the hard-touring L.A. songwriter needed. Taking a break from the road offered a rare chance to recharge and reflect, to experiment and explore, and it resulted in a creative windfall that led Redstone to his spectacular debut, ‘Shot In The Dark.’ Praised by Rolling Stone as fusing “Motown’s funky stomp with the Rolling Stones’ greasy, horn-laden rock,” the album is an infectious slice of vintage gold that draws on soul, pop, rock, and blues, a retro-tinged collection fueled by larger-than-life horns, cinematic strings, and wall-of-sound production that tips its cap to George Martin and Phil Spector... These days, Redstone is known around the world for his own raw performances. While the studio versions of his tunes are compact and tightly wound, the stage versions are adventurous and immersive, unfurling into lengthy, unpredictable jams that treat his radio-ready pop songcraft as a jumping off point for searing, soulful sonic explorations.
