Steve Brookssteve@stevebrooks.net www.stevebrooks.netCross two famous guys named Brooks - Garth and Mel - and you get Austin folksinger Steve Brooks. His Garth side co-wrote the Slaid Cleaves classic “One Good Year,” as well as songs recorded by Americana artists like Albert & Gage, The Flyin’ As, Danny Santos and Oscar-winning actor Russell Crowe. His Mel side wrote a satirical song-a-week for Jim Hightower's nationally-syndicated radio show, as well as appearing on "I've Got a Secret" as six-time World Pun Champion. More than 70 Americana stations spun his last album, "Chasing Grace," produced by Chris Gage, and his followup, “Taking You Home,” is due for release Spring 2015. Writes Stave Magazine, “He is simply the most clever man you'll hear with a guitar.”
