The holidays are almost over for everyone and I hope you enjoyed it, got energized, and are ready for some great new releases coming soon. So fasten your seatbelts because we are excited to announce the release of BOUND TO BREAK by STEVE LEON & THE ACCUSATIONS today. The single will be released on Friday, September 13th, 2025
Antwerp-based Alt-Country and Indie folk band STEVE LEON & THE ACCUSATIONS present “BOUND TO BREAK”, the first single off their upcoming album “Borrowed Time Bonanza“.
This track is a perfect example of the bands’ indie songwriting wrapped up in country and folk arrangements: steady acoustic guitars, a lilting violin, and moody dobro, topped off with two-part vocal harmonies and interjected by stabs of punchy electric guitar. The resulting sound has a good chance of appealing to fans of Wilco, Bright Eyes, Green On Red, Chuck Prophet, or The Mountain Goats.
In “Bound To Break”, Steve Leon writes about leaving youth behind with his passion for playing music fully intact. The song deals with the realization that his main motivation is a profound love of music, creation, and the unique experience of playing music with some amazing friends. Writing songs is not a choice for Leon, it’s something he has to do.
The new album “Borrowed Time Bonanza” was recorded straight to 16-track analog tape, capturing the band while playing together live. This results in a truly honest-sounding record, capturing those little magic moments that can only happen in such a setting and presenting with a warm and detailed sound. In this way, the band makes a conscious decision to preserve human emotion an imperfection in a time of glossed-over productions and AI-generated music. Mastering was handled by Bob Macc at Subvertcentral.
