  2. Hoping for Cicadas - I am hoping to be here when the cicadas return, and cherishing every minute along the way.
  3. Dusty Lawn Chairs - Let's dust off the lawn

Steve Simpson writes songs for the heart, about love and family and things that matter. Part folk, part country, but all heartfelt. Steve’s focus is on writing lyrics that speak through imagery, telling stories about real people and real love. Steve has been accumulating life experiences and putting them down in songs for years, and “Better Late” is his first CD to share those songs.
