 Tony Stevens first came to prominence when he joined the Savoy Brown Blues Band in 1968. After 5 major tours and a couple of dues paying years , he and most of the band left to stay true to their blues roots and formed multi-platinum blues rock band, Foghat.
After leaving Foghat in the late 1970’s Tony recorded and performed with a virtual who’s who in rock history as well as on several hit TV and film projects including the soundtrack for The Who's "Tommy" and "Evita".
In 1993, he re-joined the original members of Foghat and stayed until 2005. Now, his first ever solo album, Don’t Blame Me…I Just Play Bass, is out in the UK and is about to be released in the U.S. later this year.
Tony's new band is called Slow Ride. Tony has reunited with former "Foghat" drummer Eddie Zyne who has also toured with "Rick Derringer", "Hall and Oates" and "The Monkees".
With Billy Livesay, from "Clarence Clemons Temple Of Soul", on slide guitar and lead vocals , and multi-instrumentalist Tommy Hall on guitar, keyboards, harmonica and vocals, this powerhouse foursome has just completed their debut CD titled "Join Together" .
The CD was produced by "Slow Ride" , mixed by Steve Gordon (Betty Wright, Rob Thomas, Zakk Wilde) and mastered by Michael Fuller ( Eric Clapton, Rod Stewart, The Eagles).
Slow Ride is currently touring playing Foghat classics, originals, and wailing blues . Onwards and upwards !!
