As one writer for the Los Angeles Times said "This is one live show that is a must see event"
Another writer for The Los Angeles based Music Connection magazine wrote: "Their music has been described as Grateful Dead meets Merle Haggard"
Recording Magazine comments on Wildsteed "as being male vocal, country rock in the style of Jesse Colin Young or early Doobie Brothers. The short delays and pre-delayed reverbs really create a sense of depth in the mix, particularly on the awesome Leon Russell era, Delta Lady style female vocals. Well done!"
Wildsteed's latest album Nothin' Better To Do brings the complete band back to their roots, with lots of extended jams, and playing off of each other's energy. The intricate solo work of the guitars, fiddle and keyboards brings you back to the days of hard driving Southern Rock. The vocals and mandolin, put together with Dobro bring out a new and fresh sound to the styles of Americana and Bluegrass. This is one album that takes you on a journey from the lonesome sounds of bluegrass through the door into a jamming Alternative Country style hard to be described.
