Having
released several critically acclaimed EP titles over the past few
years, Swedish blues-rocker Steve Future has truly released his most
varied and accomplished album yet. With the deluxe CD and 2019 double
vinyl LP release of the 18-track, 63 minute album 7 Cities, Sweden’s
veteran singer-songwriter, guitarist and blues-harp virtuoso, presents
a fantastic overview of his ongoing legacy—a sonic gift to rock
and blues fans around the globe. Filled with a range of blues and
rock sounds, Steve’s music will quickly find a home among fans
of rock legends like the Rolling Stones, Dire Straits, John Mayall
and modern blues-rockers such as Australia’s Gus McKay. Thanks
to Steve Future’s excellent songs, vocals, and blues-harp playing,
the all-original 7 Cities album establishes Steve Future as
an excellent artist in his own right. Released as a deluxe CD and
a double vinyl LP, 7 Cities features music from Steve’s
EP releases It Takes Times, Four Cities and The 9 Others.
Putting his recording career into a concise and timely retrospective
on 7 Cities, Steve Future is truly on the leading edge of the
21st century blues and rock scene. 7 Cities was recorded in
London, Stockholm, in Berlin's famous Hansa Studio and in various
studios in the US. A modern day blues-rock masterpiece, 7 Cities
finds the blues-rocker in the company of a stellar range of electric
guitarists, drummers, backing vocalists and session musicians from
Sweden and the US. Produced by Steve Future and Peter Melin, 7
Cities is primed with catchy pop-rock and hard-hitting blues-rock
tracks spanning a wealth of musical genres. 
* Standout
tracks on 7 Cities include "It Takes Time", recorded
with Cordovas in Nashville with an Americana sound mixing in reggae
and country music.
