SUMMARY:The Steel Wheels
DESCRIPTION:American Roots Blues Country Folk		\n\n		\n			Share:\n			\n								\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n			\n		\n\n	 \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nAfter twenty years of making music together\, The Steel Wheels are still growing\, still pushing\, and still finding new ground. This summer\, the Virginia based band marks that milestone with their ninth studio album\, The Steel Wheels\, a record that captures both their hard earned musical maturity and their restless sense of adventure. \n \nRecorded live in the studio with producer D. James Goodwin\, the album reflects the way this band has always worked best\, listening closely\, responding in real time\, and letting songs come alive together in the room. The result moves effortlessly between harmony rich acoustic roots and the fuller folk rock sound the band has grown into over two decades\, balancing joy\, humor\, and energy with moments of deep reflection and tenderness.  \n \nWith thoughtful songwriting from Trent Wagler and the unmistakable interplay of Eric Brubaker\, Jay Lapp\, Kevin Garcia\, and Jeremy Darrow\, these songs explore connection\, attention\, and what truly matters beneath the noise of daily life. The Steel Wheels remain a band defined by trust\, curiosity\, and a deep commitment to the music and to one another. \n \nSAMPLE SONG \n \nCaffè Lena is proud to welcome The Steel Wheels for an evening of beautifully crafted songs\, shared stories\, and the rare chemistry that only comes from years spent making music side by side. \n \nStream this show live at CaffeLenaTV.
