Steven van Betten is a songwriter living in Los Angeles who’s taken aim on storytelling. From reflections of the American West to the depths and intimacies of human relationships, his lyrics reveal the magic hidden in mundane day-to-day life. Born and raised in Blue Diamond, Nevada—a tiny, rural, desert community—his music is inspired by time spent playing guitar in rocky canyons, taking breaks to climb the sandstone and search for swimming holes in the sweltering sun. Echoing across dim, lamplit living rooms, his solo shows are vulnerable, tender, and brutally honest. Steven plays in bands such as Fell Runner and co-founded School of Song which sees him teaching songwriting alongside contemporaries such as Phil Elverum, Miya Folick, Luke Temple, Lomelda, and Meg Duffy (Hand Habits). "I Didn't Mean To Do That" is his first solo release and teases his debut LP 'Friends & Family' due out in 2023 on Future Gods.
