Roy Schneider and his partner in music & love, Kim Mayfield, are entering their 12th year of touring, and in April 2019 added bassist Thom Callahan to the band. Their recent collection of songs titled ‘Reckless Saints’ has been hovering in the top 50 on Roots Music Report's Americana Country chart since shortly after its release in November 2018.
“Reckless Saints- Their ‘Blue Twangled Folk ’n’ Roll’ sound rides like a V8, firing on all cylinders!” ~ Gurf Morlix
"On the album, Schneider and Kim Mayfield, his wife and full-time performing partner, dance with elements of authentic folk, country, blues and rock as if they’ve been in love with them all their lives, which is probably true.Enlisting Blaze Foley’s old musical partner Gurf Morlix for help, Schneider and Mayfield cover Foley’s classic “Election Day” with rough passion, but the beautifully rendered “If I Die Tomorrow” and “Poison Arrow” swoon in their arms. All who cry out for salvation from Reckless Saintsmight experience the same effect." ~ Peter Lindblad
"Some publications have already likened Schneider to the best songwriters like Earle, Clark, and Lovett. The ringing impression from this offering is the seamless blending of so many forms of roots music. combined with meaningful and often insightful lyrics. It works beautifully.” ~ Jim Hynes
