A flair for alt-country sounds, melodic pop-hooks, and a voice that can blast it to the back of the room, Steady Habits is the vehicle for the poignant, narrative-driven songwriting of Connecticut-native Sean Duggan.
Now firmly established in the UK, Duggan has carved out a unique space for himself and the band. Recognized by Country Queer as an integral part of "the youthful side of Americana," Steady Habits approaches songwriting with a rare duality: the sensitivity of a queer artist navigating their past, and the raw, unvarnished grit of classic folk-rock. It is a sound that feels familiar yet distinctly contemporary, reminiscent of the indie-slacker reflections of Wednesday & Medium Build and the sophisticated heartland resonance of Jason Isbell and Dawes.
The band’s debut, Deviate, released via Mahogany Songs, is a soaring, hand-stitched assemblage of songs that established the band's sensibility for telling vivid stories. This studio success has translated into a formidable live reputation. Having completed a successful first headline tour of the UK and standout performances at festivals like The Long Road and AMA UK Conferences, Steady Habits have proven they can command both intimate rooms and festival stages.
As they prepare for another landmark year, Steady Habits are looking to bring their high-energy, soul-stirring live set to new audiences in 2026.
