Album Notes

Singer/songwriter Steve Nation grew up in Seattle, Washington, where he first started to craft his unique style and love for the 12-string guitar. It was there that he found his "hobby" of music was no longer the passing thing that his parents had hoped for. Seeing his love and determination for music, they spent the money they had saved for his college education on guitar equipment. In 1990, Steve moved to Tennessee and started playing the club scene in and around Nashville. He soon picked up with a bar band and hitting music hard, he started playing more road dates (don't ask about his gigs in Minnesota in the dead of winter).

As the touring got heavier, Nation could tell that music was his calling. However, he saw that the bands he was touring with were nothing more than recreational and it was during these travels that his love for touring became more evident as he was able to witness the peoples reaction to the music. "Music is such an impressionistic art form and new, solid music is so hard to find right now" said Steve, and "The Edisons" were born.

As touring with a rock-n-roll band got more and more hectic, Nation developed his writing style to a more refined audience blending his life experiences with the soulful sound that made The Edisons stand out.
