June 27, 2021 • Operation Encore • Season 1 • Episode 21

In this episode of the Operation Encore podcast, former Marine Combat Engineer Steve Harwood takes Guy and Adam on a journey of discovery, from a tumultuous youth to the battlefields of Fallujah. Born in Woodenville, WA, Steve tells the story of how his father bought him a 45-day Greyhound bus ticket after high school and how that eventually led him to join the Marines and drive Humvees across Iraq. After dodging incoming fire during his time in Operation Enduring Freedom, he returned to Washington and began taking his music career seriously and joined Operation Encore in 2019. During the podcast, he plays three songs from his recent EP that highlight his unique sound and rocker pedigree:

"Tuesdays with You"
"Shadowland" and
"All That I Need"
