Stephen Babcock & Stephen Douglas Wolfe

On Saturday, September 21, we’re welcoming two extraordinarily talented singer-songwriters to our stage – Stephen Babcock and Stephen Douglas Wolfe.

About the Artists

Stephen Babcock:

Born and raised in Upstate New York, Stephen Babcock is a songwriter all his own. Born to a family of 4 children (including a twin brother), Stephen has always used music to create his personal identity. After acquiring a love of songwriting from both his father (an avid piano player) and older brother (an avid music fan), Stephen began writing songs when he was just 13 years old.

After eight years of writing, touring and perfecting his craft, Stephen began recording what would become his first album, “Said & Done”. The album became a mixture of youth and promise that helped begin Stephen’s career as a singer-songwriter.

Quickly following the release of  “Said & Done”, Stephen immediately began touring the United States and broadening his musical horizons out on the road. From countless stages across the country to various Nashville writer’s rooms, Stephen has left both music fans and industry veterans looking for more. After embracing his Carolina family roots and a love of Americana music, Stephen released the critically acclaimed E.P. “Fiction” in April 2018. Finding his voice (and some new fans along the way), Stephen’s unique blend of Americana, southern rock, and indie folk helped establish him as a PASTE Magazine favorite in 2018.

Now, After spending the last three years on and off the road, hours of writing in New York and Nashville, and gathering significant media buzz, Stephen is set to release a bundle of new singles in 2019. His first, “Fight I Need”, released June 28th, 2019, with more to follow. From simple beginnings to a promising songwriter; Stephen Babcock has become a name to watch in music.

Stephen Douglas Wolfe

After a decade of work in two propulsive indie rock bands Getaway Driver and Cavaliers, Stephen Douglas Wolfe has found his voice, this time without a band surrounding him.

Until now, Stephen’s four releases and extensive touring as a member of these bands, Lawrence, Kansas was what he called home. Wolfe’s Eastern Kansas hometown brought with it an opportunity to convene an impressive roster of musicians for his first solo album. Cavaliers’ “Except for the Birds” (released in 2007) was his chance to assemble players from acts such as The Get Up Kids, Kelpie, Ghosty, and The Roseline to contribute to the record. After a hiatus brought upon partially by a professional move to NYC, recording would resume for Wolfe in his new home in 2015 at Subcat Studios in Syracuse, New York.

A series of digital singles including “O River” “Free” and “Pretty Baby” found their way to the public at the end of the year. With 2016 came a series of 7″ singles – “We’ll Live” released in march, “Window” in June, and finally “The Animals” in November. Also released in November was the self-titled EP containing all 6 songs from the 7″ series. Along the way, Wolfe pushed two digital-only singles, “Thoughts & Prayers” which was recorded in one take straight to tape, and “Believe Me”. 

Stephen is the host of the monthly singer-songwriter series “Second Sundays with Stephen Douglas Wolfe” at the Listening Room at 443.
