Hannah Wicklund & The Steppin Stones Release Self Titled Album Today
By: Caryn Robbins Jan. 26, 2018
The self-titled album from HANNAH WICKLUND & THE STEPPIN STONES--fronted by 20-year-old powerhouse Hannah Wicklund--is out today, January 26 (via her Strawberry Moon imprint) on a wave of praise from such outlets as Guitar Player, Relix, Guitar World and the weekly Nashville Scene (*see pull quotes below). Notably, the album's lead single "Bomb Through The Breeze" was just added to the top of the 'Fierce Femmes' playlist on Spotify.
Listen to HANNAH WICKLUND & THE STEPPIN STONES via the following platforms: iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music.
Recently, Premier Guitar premiered the second single, "Ghost" and Kate Koenig raved that "...the 20-year-old's stage presence and guitar playing is pure voltage...on 'Ghost'...Wicklund's scarlet-toned vocals drip over a steady blues-rock groove punctuated by gnawing electric guitar."Click here to listen to "Ghost" via Spotify.
Produced by Sadler Vaden, guitarist for Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit, the album--an aural kaleidoscope of blazing guitars and searing vocals, all of which establish Wicklund as a triple-threat player, singer and writer--was recorded in Nashville and is a fresh take on WICKLUND's musical influences drawn from '60s & '70s guitar-driven rock. "Once we started writing some songs, I saw that she had a real, raw talent," says producer Vaden. "I was inspired to work with her by her love of classic rock music and blues. I wanted to honor that in making this album, but also add a little modern edge to it."
HANNAH WICKLUND AND THE STEPPIN STONES--who've played over 2,000 shows including notable festival appearances--are in the middle of an overall 50-date2018 "Sibling Rivalry" tour with The High Divers, stopping in major cities such as New York, Austin, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles.
