JM Stevens
While it’s rare for a musician to drop two studio albums within a year, JM Stevens says there was no grand scheme to release Wish on a River Bridge, his third solo effort, a mere 11 months after its predecessor.
The seasoned singer-songwriter, with no one to answer to, simply felt free and eager to “make the best music I can, where I am in this moment in time, and get it out in the world.”
“The longer you sit on songs, there’s the chance they might marinate a little too long, and it’s so easy to talk yourself out of things,” the Austin, Texas-based Stevens says.
Nowhere To Land
“Excellent second album from Texas songwriter. Simplicity is difficult to master in songwriting. Being able to say something in a conversational manner is a gift few artists do well. Tom Petty was perhaps the greatest at this. John Mellencamp also comes to mind. Add Austin native JM Stevens to that list. His sophomore album, Nowhere to Land, is full of gentle, yet infectious songs that are immediately relatable.” - Icon Fetch
Invisible Lines
“The majority of these songs sound as if they’ve been lingering in the ethos forever, uncannily familiar yet edgy enough to catch immediate attention and resonate well beyond.” - Goldmine
