Steve Azar knew that someday he would leave his Mississippi Delta home to pursue his own life in music. A native of Greenville, Mississippi, Azar is a hit songwriter, recording artist, and music producer whose sound traverses a blend of country, blues, funk, and rock n’ roll, a genre he calls, "Delta Soul." Azar has released seven critically acclaimed studio albums including Waitin’ on Joe which rendered a hit title track and #1 music video as well as the smash hit “I Don’t Have To Be Me (‘Til Monday)”, a recipient of three coveted BMI Million-Air awards. The hit single “Sunshine” (also a #1 video) and the album Slide On Over Here were featured in the 2011 “Oprah’s Favorite Things” edition of O Magazine. The Steve Azar & The Kings Men album titled Down At The Liquor Store is backed by veteran bandmates of B.B. King, Elvis Presley, and other icons of music with a feature documentary, Something in the Water, chronicling the making of the record. His latest album, My Mississippi Reunion, winner of the 2021 Mississippi Institute of Arts and Letters award for best contemporary album, features a collection of past and new songs inspired by Azar’s roots. The song “One Mississippi” is the official state song of Mississippi. Azar is the official Music & Culture Ambassador of Mississippi.
