Steve Newsome is a Canadian country singer/songwriter, born and raised in southern Alberta. He now hangs his hat just west of Stony Plain. Steve’s proud farm, ranching and trail riding past has given him plenty of inspiration for his song writing. From guitar drowning pack horses, grizzly bears and back country rodeos to making big wheels turn and engines roar, Steve has no shortage of experience when it comes to the cowboy life.
Steve takes time out to work with young local artists, whether it is song writing, doing sound production at a show or all around mentoring. In addition to working with other artists, Steve has also done charity work, raising funds for Boot Campaign Canada, in support of post service armed forces and first responders.

Steve has played with many great artists at songwriters showcases throughout the province and has hosted many local open mic nights. As a solo artist or with his band, Steve has opened for Canadian country artists; Jason McCoy, Adam Gregory, Jake Mathews, Clayton Bellamy, Jaydee Bixby and Codie Prevost. This past July, Steve opened for Canadian country superstar, Brett Kissel to a sold-out show of 1400 in Spruce Grove, Alberta.

Steve started work on his debut CD in August of 2015. On March 21, 2016, he released his first single Tried, Tested and True to radio with great success, being added to 47 stations across the country. TTT also spent 15 weeks in the Top 20 in California, including two weeks at Number One. His latest single, Enjoy The Ride, the title track from his debut EP (September 30, 2601), peaked at Number 4 on that same chart. In Canada, it was added to the library of 46 stations and continues to be a dance favorite at live shows. and after just one week has been added to eight stations in Canada.

His guitar is never far away, always in the back of his truck as he attends fairs, rodeos, festivals and campfires in his travels. You never know when you will need a good time.

Steve is solid and marketable!

I had the opportunity and pleasure of reviewing Steve Newsome. Gutsy song, gutsy singer and lots of energy in the song and presentation. We will be adding it for sure!!

Good solid tune. Nice to see something a bit up tempo come across my desk.

Thank you for the great evening of entertainment your group provided for our Annual Trophy Supper and Awards Night. Your music would give the group Alabama a run for their money. I noticed a lot of people who weren’t dancers, just stayed around for the music. Good job and we look forward to seeing you here next year.
