A Finland-based roots music collective with a penchant for turning heavy metal classics into front porch jamborees, Steve 'n' Seagulls formed in 2012 and began honing their signature hillbilly metal sound at theme events, cruises, clubs, and restaurants.

By 2014, the quintet (banjo, spoons, upright, bass, accordion, and guitar) had inked a deal with Spinefarm Records on the strength of their increasingly popular YouTube videos, which saw the band laying down meticulously rendered bluegrass versions of songs like "The Trooper" (Iron Maiden), "Holy Diver" (Dio), and "Thunderstruck" (AC/DC). The following year saw the release of the group's debut studio album, Farm Machine, which featured covers that ranged from Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters" to Guns N' Roses' "Paradise City."
