I'll Do Anything

"Listen To Your Woman" Is the first release of Steve Kolander's career. The song went to #57 in the Billboard Charts and #4 in the Americana charts. Co-written by Steve Kolander and Ed Tree. 

Listen To Your Woman

Written in a hotel room across from River North Records the night before the session by the band; Steve Kolander, John McDuffy, Dave Hall, Patrick Murnane and Billy Block.

Drowning Man

Written by Steve Kolander, this song was written while watching my friend argue with her boyfriend while he leaned on his cherry red Corvette. I sat on the front porch and carved out this song as I enjoyed an ice cold beer and imagined what they were talking about.

Can't Tame Your Love

Co-written by Steve Kolander, John Bettis and Patrick Murnane. Actually, I believe the phrase, "Put Wings On My Kisses" came from Patrick's daughter, Abby. She was 5 years old. I took the song to Bettis after Murnane and I had already taken it pretty far. Bettis gave it his touch to get it from good to great. 

Wings On My Kisses

Co-written by Steve Kolander and John Bettis. I love this song. It was put on hold by Wynonna (Judd) and Faith Hill after Wynonna passed but it never made it on her CD. After Bettis and I finished writing it and I was putting it down as a working tape, I looked over and Bettis had teared up. This song really resonated with him and as I get older I find the song touches me deeper as time goes by. It kinda sounds like an old Glen Campbell song. 

Overlooking The Farm

Written by me, Steve Kolander, I finally got tired of listening to rap music and decided to try my hand at it for the holidays. I was tired of hearing about all the recalls of Chinese children's products. I decided to make a Christmas song about how if we keep sending our jobs overseeas, we'll end up on the government dole with crappy toys for our kids.

Cheap Ass Toy

Written on the piano by Steve Kolander. It's about his wife Valerie after an evening at a fundraising ball for Emerson Hospital. She danced like crazy but after the ball, she complained about the pain. don't know what's worse; having bruised feet or hearing about your wife's bruised feet. 

High Heeled Shoes

Written by Steve Kolander and John Bettis. I had lost this song and when I heard it the other day, it was like hearing the story for the first time. A real surprise after writing it over 10 years ago. 

Let The Angels In

Co-written with Hank Cochran and Buddy Cannon, this is the cut that was recorded in Hank's bedroom as he was laying there with an oxygen tank and Buddy and I were sitting at the foot of his bed. Buddy Cannon is playing guitar, I'm singing and Hank Cochran is listening.
