Trespass Music radio client Bethel Steele‘s second
studio record, “Of Love & Whiskey” debuts in the Top 20 as she acquires #17 for Top Albums and Songs on the Folk DJ Charts. Most played from her current project are “Farm”, “Seasons” and “Sunrise” as Steele establishes herself at #26 for Top Artists.

Bethel Steele continues to do very well on the Roots Music Report, coming in at #11 on the RMR State Chart for MA, and secures #33 for Top 50 Folk Albums on the Roots Music Report Charts!

“Of Love and Whiskey” is an introspective and tender exploration of the human condition; a 10-song effort that delves into love’s adventures, the journey of
recovery and self-reflection, and our capacity to find hope in unexpected places.
The production on Of Love &Whiskey ranges from Bethel’s vocal and guitar (With
Age) to fully produced songs backed by seasoned performers (Sunrise, The Farm, Blue Skies),
but every song on the album shares an intimate story with the listener. Even the edgier
numbers, like those that tackle the subject of addiction (Hard Love, Whiskey), have a
certain heartfelt conviction and sincerity about them.
The record as a whole is a journey!
