“My name is on the back of many more records than on the front,” says Austin-based producer, songwriter and guitarist, Stephen Doster. “The new record is only  my fourth as an artist.” That record,  Arizona, arrives November 4th via Atticus Records and Doster explains, “It’s the record I always hoped I would make.”

Doster’s musical story starts in 1982, when he was a young man on top of the world, recording his debut album with James Honeyman-Scott of The Pretenders producing it. “During the sessions, Jimmy was called back to London to cut a new Pretenders single,” Doster remembers. “He was coming right back to Texas as soon as he was done.”

The rest of the story is a public and sad event in music history.  For Doster, it was very personal and changed the trajectory of his career.
