Steve Wilson is a storyteller. Often compared to radio-friendly rock acts such as Nickelback and Creed, his music commands attention and places him on the fast track to stardom.
With a musical career spanning 15 years and taking him from Texas to Egypt, Mexico to the Middle East, he's carefully honed the skill to illustrate life through lyric and melody. From the commanding opening riff of "Ask Me To" to the Lump-in-your-throat-producing final note of "Like I Do", listeners are taken on an emotional tour of life with a very personal soundtrack.
His latest release, Moments of Clarity (2007), features guest musicians including Nate Schierman (Dummy Boy Records), Sammy Hudson (Everclear), Bobby Hattenburg (The Exies, Flyreal), and Dan Conrad. The record takes a turn from his signature solo singer/songwriter act, instead creating a potent full-band sound and taking his talent as a wordsmith to new heights.

"A voice that has a similar timbre to Bruce Springsteen brings this track firmly to the centre of my attention.
The one person and their guitar genre have always been hit or miss with me. This due to a) The person lacking the right voice or b) The guitar thing doesn't work with a lone voice.
Now Mr Wilson here has the magical blend of both. A strong (and I know I use this word a lot) and emotive voice.. It is helped superbly by a good piece of production work, which is another thing I find usually goes wrong with this genre.
I can see why he is growing in popularity. He has a solid presence, which will command and demand an audience to listen. The song is simple and a perfect vehicle for the singer to put across the thoughtful lyrics, which he does in spades.."
Recommend it? Without hesitation

"Steve Wilson came to my attention in April this year with an exceptional vocal performance on his track Perfect - now available at MP3Unsigned as a remastered version featuring 47 Section.
Read his biography you'll see that Steve's got quite a few musical years behind him & on listening to his voice & songs I'm sure you'll agree that he's got a long musical future in front of him too.
Steve Wilsons style is acoustic rock & I believe he rights all his own music & lyrics & plays his own instruments too. Most of his tracks online at MP3Unsigned are live recordings - the fella regularly plays live venues in Texas & Louisiana, USA - a couple of years ago he even entertained the US Troops along with 47 Section.
Steve's latest offerings on his band page are I Wonder If She Knows & Eyes Wide both tracks taken from his forthcoming EP on Statue Records.
Whilst these 2 new tracks aren?t quite as commercial as Perfect, they're both lyrically meaningful & delivered well with forceful, strong, energetic vocals.
I personally think if Steve got together with some guys, or formed his own band & got regular studio time there?d be no stopping him. Another artist on MP3Unsigned who seems to be overlooked by most -Steve Wilson definitely deserves a hearing in my opinion.
I'd like to take this opportunity to wish Steve "Good Luck" with his forthcoming 10 track EP - who knows before long he may be gigging over here in the UK & we'll get to appreciate his live performances in the flesh rather than just hearing 'em on MP3Unsigned."

"Steve Wilson is one of those artists just waiting to be fond by some big fat A&R; rep..... lets just hope they don't corrupt his class style... 10/10"
