Still You Carry Me
from the new record Love For You

Appalachian-born singer-songwriter, Steven Sedalia, is forging a folk rock sound fusing mystical ambience with acoustic roots. Raised in the mountains of North Carolina, as a young boy Steven was know to wander miles through woods and creeks, experiences that instilled in him a profound connection to nature and its creatorβa presence that permeates his music. His journey later took him across oceans to the Hawaiian Islands, where he spent seven years honing his craft alongside a collective of musicians deeply rooted in farming and community.
With a sensitive heart and a keen eye for lifeβs spiritual undercurrents, Sedaliaβs songwriting delves into themes of self-discovery, mythical adventure, and transcendent love. His reflective lyrics and radiant melodies evoke a soulful intimacy, blending influences from artists like Trevor Hall, The Avett Brothers, and Xavier Rudd. Anchored by his bright vocals and grounding acoustic guitar, Sedalia invites listeners on an emotionally rich journey through the landscapes of love, loss, and redemption that define the human experience. Having shared stages with artists such as Xavier Rudd, Mike Love, Satsang, and Paul Izak, Sedalia continues to carve his own path in the evolving roots revival movement, offering music that is both nourishing and timeless.
