Newly signed to Stony Plain Records, Steve Strongman's 2019 release Tired of Talkin is now benefitting from a global release with the promotional attention this album deserves. As an established Canadian artist building awareness across the US, Stongman has been earning rave reviews as an emerging talent on the scene today. Beyond Strongman's skills as a songwriter, guitarist and front man is his ability to engage his audience and deliver an outstanding performance at every live show.

Strongman's 7th studio recording: Tired of Talkin is destined to further establish the guitar slinger's reputation as one of the most exciting artists on the International Blues scene. Strongman's impressive resume includes stints opening for guitar legends B.B. King, Buddy Guy, and Johnny Winter. The performer's breakthrough 2012 release A Natural Fact was hailed as a standout, earning Maple Blues Awards for Recording, Songwriter, and Guitarist Of The Year as well as a 2013 Juno Award for Blues Recording Of The Year.

Track Listing

Press Quotes

Here's a rerelease of Strongman's 2019 record that hopes to benefit from better distribution, this time on Stony Plain Records and distributed through MVD Audio. With the exception of a well-done set closing take on Al Green's 'Let's Stay Together' everything here was written by Strongman or co-written with album producer Dave King. The effort begins with the title cut, a rollicking cut about sealing the deal with the evening's object of desire at the nightclub; the hour is getting late and the guy Strongman portrays in the song is ready to move the action from the dancefloor to the bedroom. 'Paid My Dues' is a swinging blues where Strongman, guitarist, Dobro player and singer throughout, flavors the cut with some classic blues harp riffs. 'Still Crazy about You' seems to be inspired by Randy Newman, frenetic harmonica pushes the speedy shuffle 'Can't Have it All' along and the tender 'That Kind of Fight' is the album's quiet moment. Clearly a very talented songwriter, Tired of Talkin' is likely to widen Strongman's fan base considerably.
