“somewhere between Springsteen and Steve Earle” - The Welcomat

Eddie Seville gained a reputation for visceral live shows and gritty songwriting as the voice and creative force behind the outlaw rock band Steel Rodeo. As a solo artist, he’s an engaging raconteur who’s left a trail of grins, winks and nods in theaters, roadhouses and festival gatherings around the US, Europe and Canada.

Drawing from folk, roots and country blues, he's written songs released on Island, Atlantic and Universal Records with music aired on three US television networks and HBO. Authenticity and lyrical depth has led to Eddie’s songs being recorded by various artists that include the late George Kooymans of the band Golden Earring, who covered “Ticket to Heaven” on the 2022 Mirage album and also “Blind Love,” which Sony released as a European single. His three-chord rocker "Carol Ann" is included in The Essential Western New England Songbook and his alt-country ballad "One More Guitar” launched an ad campaign and a signature acoustic by the Netherlands-based Homestead Guitar Company.

Eddie’s work spans many projects with veteran rock producer Paul Orofino, as well as recording & touring with notable artists including Frank Carillo (Peter Frampton / Tim Hardin), Danny Miranda (Queen), Matt Cartsonis (Warren Zevon), Simon Kirke (Free / Bad Company) and Augie Meyers (Texas Tornados / Bob Dylan).
