"Woke"
Tracks
Steven Keene holds up an unflattering yet hopeful creative mirror with his latest album Woke.
“Woke” pays homage to some of Steven Keene's major creative influences while chronicling the evolution of his own sound as he explores musical and lyrical motifs around love, loss, social responsibility, and political resistance. The songs on Woke run the gamut from the overtly political to the starkly anti-political, from rock and blues to folk, and some old-school country.
At the forefront of the album is Keene’s powerful and timely anti-war anthem “Soon,” a track that seamlessly melds a James Agee-styled social critique with the ardent defiance of the best in American protest music.
