TAMPA, FL (February 13, 2026) — Kevin Steele recently announced his first solo album, One Thing Left To Do, that will be released on February 27, 2026, via Steele Records/Amplified Distribution. The second single “
There’s A Better Day Comin’” is out now on digital services.
“I’ve had some pretty dark times in my life and I’ve sung about some of them on this album but I’m a survivor and I wanted to end the record on a positive note. “There’s A Better Day Comin’” is a song about hope. No matter who you are or what your life experience is, no matter what you believe in or what your politics or preferences are, just to get out of bed every morning and face the day in this ever increasingly crazy world we live in you’ve got to have a little hope. Some people might think this song has religious overtones or that I’m singing about the hereafter. I’m not. I’m singing about tomorrow, right here. That’s what we’ve got. You’ve got to make the best of this short life we’re given. For me, music has always been my savior. You’ve got to fight to find your light of love and a way to let it shine!” – Kevin Steele

All of these songs showcase Kevin’s masterful songwriting across all the musical styles that have shaped his colorful career, including glam, punk, rock, blues, and even southern gospel. Kevin’s band Roxx Gang were one of America’s great bands and the first rock band signed to Virgin Records in America. Their debut record, the classic “Things You’ve Never Done Before”, sold over 250,000 copies. In a way, they were the bridge between glam and grunge and The Mojo Gurus played a vital role in keeping rock-n-roll alive in “the Tens” working with legendary producers Jack Douglas (John Lennon, Aerosmith, New York Dolls) and Tommy Henricksen (Alice Cooper, Lou Reed, The Hollywood Vampires). With One Thing Left To Do, Steele brings his musical journey full circle with a truly remarkable record that you just have to hear.
Joining Kevin on this new record is guitar phenom / co producer Billy Summer (Florida, Luxury Mane, The New Brutarians) whose music has been heard on major TV shows and films such as Ted Lasso, The Affair, Harpoon, Life and Beth, Chicago Fire, Property Brothers and many others.The result is one hot slab of Rock ‘n’ Roll revelry covering several genres that showcase a track list of impressive playing and songwriting.
“Billy and I made such a great team. Instant connection of the minds. He knew instinctively where I was going musically with each song before I would even tell him. That’s why they call us the Cosmic Twins”, said Kevin.
The band is an allstar collection of Tampa Bay, Florida musicians playing at the top of their game. They formed an instant camaraderie and the good times had in the recording sessions shine across every track!
