Lion

Steph Strings

The power of nature and our likeness to wild animals.

Why I wrote this song

“I’m inspired by nature, I write a lot about how nature impacts me. I have a strong connection with my guitar and how it expands and retracts based on the weather. I think because it’s natural, because its wood that I feel so connected.”

About me as an artist

Steph Strings is an Australian-based singer-songwriter from Melbourne, Victoria.

With influences from the John Butler Trio, Kim Churchill and Ziggy Alberts, this young storyteller has combined fingerstyle guitar with bursts of percussion, Celtic, blues and folk. Her music and stage presence continue to captivate audiences around the world.

About the music video

“The video was inspired by own experience being stuck inside, unable to embrace nature and how much that in turn affects my mental health. It’s about how once I get outside I feel empowered and start to live fiercely; I’m a lion.”
