ABOUT:

Formed in late 2023 just outside Lexington, Kentucky, Small Steps began when Jeremiah (vocals/guitar) & Coty (drums) started writing songs in a cramped office with one goal in mind: bring a fresh spark of punk energy to their scene. The chemistry was instant, & the songs came fast.

Guitarist Jon joined soon after, locking in perfectly with Jeremiah’s melodic yet driving style. Before even finding a bassist, the trio recorded a self-released 4-song EP that set the tone for what Small Steps would become: urgent, heartfelt punk rooted in melody & grit. Jonathan came aboard on bass soon after, completing the lineup & fueling a breakout year that included non-stop shows, small tours, & a full-length vinyl album on Blind Rage Records.

In 2024, Justin took over on bass as the band tracked their newest release. A 5-song 7” recorded at Gravity Studios (Fall Out Boy, Rise Against) in Chicago & released through Transcendental Revolution. With new material in hand & plans to take their sound further across the Midwest & beyond, Small Steps continue to build momentum as one of Kentucky’s most exciting punk bands.

They’ve shared the stage with Harley Poe, Negative Approach, Zero Boys, The Homeless Gospel Choir, The Crosses, Squint, Last Gasp, The Raging Nathans, and more.

For fans of: Face To Face, Bad Religion, Saves The Day, Lifetime, New Found Glory.

Members of: Treason, Vibrolas, The Redemption Song!, Funeral At Sea, Devore, X’d Up Hands, Death Bell, & Ink & Lead.
