Биография

“the blood of our fathers lights the road we’re on moving out of the darkness to a place in the sun” These are the words that usher in the conclusion of “I’m Coming Home” the last song on Thunder and Rain the new album by veteran South African rocker Steve Louw. Thunder and Rain follows hot on the heels of Headlight Dreams the 2021 album which received strong reviews and earned a nomination for Best Rock Album from the South African Music Awards in 2022. Headlight Dreams may have arrived many decades into a long career yet it serves as a perhaps ideal summation of Louw's generous spirit and soulful rock & roll. Produced by Louw's long-time friend and collaborator Kevin Shirley (John Hiatt, Robert Cray) album’s ten songs blend Americana grit with the anthemic, big music of the 1980s. Louw celebrates the restorative nourishing love on “Mother Don't Go” an insightful, insistent tune graced by guitar wizard Joe Bonamassa, who brings out the song’s incandescent spirit as he intertwines his playing with that of Doug Lancio. Thunder and Rain is a testament to the enduring strength of his partnership with Kevin Shirley. This is music that feels comfortable and experienced, music that suggests a rich interior life in its blend of searching soul, muscular folk and insistent rock. Its a blend that Louw has refined throughout his career so no wonder it feels so rich and natural on Thunder And Rain: it is quite literally the music of his life ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
