California singer/songwriter Steve "Daddy-O" Byers was greatly inspired as a kid, by the swinging sounds of the golden era of American Popular Music, like Elvis and Carl Perkins. Since what's old and retro is now red-hot, our man Daddy-O is in big demand for his jump-jazz and rockabilly compositions. TV shows featuring his music include True Blood (HBO), Everwood (FOX), Saving Grace (TNT), Good Guys (FOX), American Pickers (History Channel), and film credits include Townies 2004, 29 Reasons to Run, and Walker Payne.
