On February 10th, 2008, Steve Taylor debuts his new album "Has the Size of the Road Got the Better of You?" at Cafe DuNord in San Francisco. A song cycle about being lost and found on the road of life, it was recorded over the last 3 and a half years, amidst an array of trials and tribulation. Playing with a passion and honesty that's lost on most contemporary artists, Steve merges the heart-on-your-sleeve confessional style of Joni Mitchell, the northern soul of Van Morrison, and the pop hooks of T-Rex, and filters them through a progrock lense, creating a soundscape that's both modern and unironically influenced by 70's AM rock. Playing nearly all of the instruments, including a palette of pre 1980 synths, electric pianos and organs, Steve also asked friends Marco Benevento and Joe Russo, aka the Benevento Russo Organ and Drums Duo from NYC, to take part. Work has recently begun on a new stripped down acoustic album which has an intended fall release.
