notes

"Funky country blues...It's a funky mix of country blues style slide guitar and funk or non-Western rhythms that sounds totally original to me. A very fresh sound that I'd like to hear more of."...Gray Matter Chicago, Illinois

  • Review of 'Actor On the Edge'
    author: Justin Harvey - Producer/Engineer , Owner-Timares Studios

    I couldn't pronounce his name if you paid me to, but Steven Knechtges "Actor on the Edge" is hands down the most original thing I have heard in a long time! He has a quirky alt. country style but with far more funkiness than any of his contemporaries. He exudes a straight forward soulful honesty in his vocals and a compelling mastery of his genre defying acoustic guitar stylings. The production is raw, but it works perfectly for the style that Mr. Knechtges is going for. The straight forward vocals, hooky guitars, and bouncy drums all come together seemlessly. Hands down Steven Knechtges has to be the best artist in his genre on MP3.com. This is not even a style of music I particularily like, but I will certainly be adding him to my MP3 station immediately. I highly recomend this artist! 9.5 out of 10.

  • The Best of 2001

    This cat is so hip he outwits himself. Funky, greasy, nasty and just too damn clever to be real. But guess what, Steve gets multiple plays in my house and gets my toes to tappin' every time. If John Lennon, David Lindley and Kieth Richards were in a band, this is a glimpse of what it would sound like. "Actor on the Edge" is a guitar pickin' killer!
