This is it, folks, the one you have been waiting for! The Side Street Steppers are recording their debut record,
Memphis Stomp, this summer, and we plan to release the CD in the early fall. We need your help to do it, however, and you can preorder the CD or buy into other great rewards (case/bumper stickers, signed glossy band photos, cameo appearances in upcoming music videos, live performances, etc) by backing our Kickstarter campaign:
