Steve Leon and the AccusationsImagine growing up on the Clash, the Smiths and the Cure. Then hitting 30 and falling in love with Townes Van Zandt, Hank Williams and Gram Parsons…
Steve Leon & The Accusations mix indie, country and folk in an adventurous and unique way.
The Antwerp-based band bring you indie songwriting wrapped up in country and folk arrangements, complete with lilting violin, weeping pedal steel and urgent mandolin chops.
The resulting sound has a good chance of appealing to fans of bands like Wilco, Bright Eyes, Green On Red/Chuck Prophet or The Mountain Goats.
Steve started writing songs for what became The Accusations during the pandemic and the band formed soon after. They didn’t waste any time in releasing their debut EP “Louche”, which saw the light of day in May ’23 on German label Off Label Records.
Ever since, the band played all over Germany, Holland and Belgium, putting on a captivating and varied live show wherever they go.
In between shows, they found the time to record their debut album: “Borrowed time bonanza” will be out on Off Label Records on November 8th 2024, showcasing a growth in sound and dynamics that reflects their ever tightening bond as a group of musicians and friends.
All recordings were made straight to 16 track analogue tape without any editing, reflecting the band's live sound in the most honest way possible. This was a very conscious decision, made in an effort to preserve human imperfection in these times of glossed over productions and AI generated music.
