I'm a home-recorder/songwriter from Chicago - by way of Roswell, New Mexico.  I record in my home office.   If you'd like to remix any of my tracks, let me know.  I can send raw files.

Guidebooks live up to their name with adventurous use of found-sound and field recordings within songs that also feature more traditional band instrumentation.  A featured Soundcloud Fellowship in 2013 showed just how much fun the band could have collecting sounds and writing in collaboration with this huge international community.  Citing influences as diverse as Sufjan Stevens and Mount Kimbie, the current live shows promise to provide an experimental, but also playful, approach to song-writing and  performance.

My name is Sam. I'm married to Katy.  Together we made Max.  Be excellent to each other.

William Steffey has been scribbling in colorful notebooks and making music on any instrument he can find since his early teens. After brief spasms of higher education in Iowa City and Chicago, he doubled down on the art life and released a string of sixteen albums in the Art Rock style. Press reviews are voluminous and wildly polarized, while the music has enjoyed airplay on hundreds of radio stations worldwide. William has kept an online journal since the late 20th century, filling the glowing screen with post-modern musings, dreamscapes, and lyrics that encompass both. 

William's track "Want it All" is featured on the 2-LP Situation Chicago vinyl compilation along with Jeff Tweedy, Poi Dog Pondering, and OK Go, with 100% of proceeds going to Chicago music venues affected by Covid-19.

William's thundering swan song SPARKLE drops on Friday, July 23rd.
