Steph Hoy's REWIND album review by Jim Graves - Biker FM

Rewind – Steph Hoy

I first saw Steph Hoy in 2014 at You’ve Been Nabbed, a charity fundraising Bike Rally organised by the National Association for Bikers with a Disability here in the UK. He had travelled from his home in France to attend the event and I got to listen to him and Stevie Simpson having a Jam session in the Marshalls tent. His ability and talent impressed me as they played a few tunes to entertain and raise the morale of our band of volunteers. Steph readily agreed to return to the event in 2015 to play a set in the Real Ale Marquee, one of three stages at the event and by far the most relaxed. He did not disappoint any of those in attendance with his repertoire of his own material performed with a Gallic flair that earned him a host of new followers, me included.

Steph had been working on his album, Rewind, for some time, honing it to a level of excellence worthy of much bigger stages than the one I saw him grace. Rewind is a collection of Acoustic Guitar driven tracks that tell stories that we can all relate to. His experiences during his travels mingle with troubles he has encountered in his life that flow seamlessly from his guitar and vocals and are ably accompanied by a succession of instruments that complement the songs to give the listener a truly immersive experience as Steph takes us with him on his musical journey.

From the opening bars of Mystery through the beautiful lyrics of In the City of Angels via the mandolin fuelled tale of the Sad Story of Andrew James Brown, Steph Hoys’ talent as a singer songwriter shines brightly. Rewind is an album you have to experience rather than listen to as background filler. He grabs your attention and holds it throughout, finally leaving us with a pure acoustic guitar and vocal version of In the City of Angels that ensures you will revisit this album time and again. Rewind is a worthy addition to my music collection and I recommend you make it a part of yours too.
