Pre-Order Thread

@soulsteprecords excuse my ignorance but what is the footprint series?

(I think it might be country/adjacent, but I’m not sure)

Was close Appalachian artists and music.
Yeah @Nee Lewman is right. It’s their country/folk series. The new record they are talking about is likely Sterling Drake’s new record. They’ve done a couple releases with him before.

Soul Step Records Announces SSR-103!

Soul Step Records is proud to announce the latest release from one of Country’s best new voices, Sterling Drake. His latest release, “The Shape I’m In” is another classic set of Country & Western tunes.

Sterling Drake’s debut full-length album ‘The Shape I’m In’ is a lively jaunt through the landscapes of roots music. Produced by Grammy-winning Icelandic multi-instrumentalist Thorleifur Davidsson, the 14-track record subverts expectations and reimagines the familiar sounds that have shaped the country genre.

Recorded at the Bomb Shelter in East Nashville, ‘The Shape I’m In’ unfolds as a nearly autobiographical telling of Sterling’s adventures as an artist. The album stands out for its innovative approach, marking Sterling’s transition from interpreting the styles of his musical heroes to establishing his own unique voice. Inspired by legends like Willie Nelson, Roger Miller, Don Williams, The Dubliners, and Paul Brady, Sterling has developed a sound that reflects the depth and breadth of these influences while exploring new ideas.

The record features a cast of highly acclaimed musicians including Jeff Taylor, Dennis Crouch, Russ Pahl, Billy Contreras, Aksel Coe, and Davidsson, among others. Tracks range from introspective to raucous, marrying the Nashville sound of the 1960s with Delta blues and intricate Celtic traditional melodies, delivering a musical arc that is diverse yet cohesive.

This album is a significant milestone for the award-winning musician, highlighting his growth from a young honky tonk singer to a seasoned artist. ‘The Shape I’m In’ promises to connect with fans of country music and newcomers alike.

Sterling has continued to show his growth with every release and we here at Soul Step Records are honored for his latest effort, “The Shape I’m In” that will be available for Pre-order on 3/13/25 and will be fully released on 5/2/25.
