Coyotee Moon
Coyotee Moon is a dynamic western music trio. They not only write their own songs and sing about the ?cowboy? way of life, but rounding up the cattle, branding the calves and playing music around the campfire is what they love the most.
The three part harmonies are tightly blended together with Steve Lewis on lead guitar, Lisa Stubblefield on rhythm, and Terry Lewis on bass.
Coyotee Moon has performed for all kinds of venues throughout the US including Branson, Missouri, Nashville, Tennessee, Scottsdale, Arizona, Reno/Lake Tahoe, Nevada, Lewiston, Idaho.
On stage, this western music trio has an amazing magic that creates a great rapport with their audience. Their passion for preserving the western way of life is reflected in the songs they play and sing.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
LISA STUBBLEFIELD
The ram rod of the group, so to speak, gained her singing talent as a child around the piano while her mother played. In later years, while working in the Alaska oil field, Lisa developed an interest in learning to play the guitar and at the age of 33, a friend gave her a guitar, showed her a few cords and she was soon playing for dances and parties.
After moving back to Utah, Lisa joined the Western Music Association (Utah Chapter) where she served as the secretary for 5 years. She is a working member of the Ogden Cowboy Poetry and Music Festival committee and most recently has been added to the board of directors for the Cowboy Poets of Utah.
Lisa?s plays rhythm on the twelve string guitar and has written a few of her own songs. Her greatest influences in music were Patsy Cline, Marty Robbins and watching the cowboys on the silver screen. Singing around the campfire is one of her favorite things to do but her true love in life is riding and playing with horses especially the Mustangs.
STEVE LEWIS
Steve was born in the Malad, Idaho area to a musical family. His father played rag time music and really could make the piano shake, and his mother would sing to him as a child.
While growing up, he would listen to the old western songs and sing along with the country artists. At age 13, Steve ?long-term? borrowed his brothers? guitar and would pick out the notes learning to play along with the songs on the radio.
He has been playing and singing for more than 30 years with a combination of country and country rock music throughout the intermountain west and has opened for several major artists throughout his career.
Steve?s plays lead guitar for the group and has written many of the songs on their CDs. His greatest influences in music were Elvis Presley, Marty Robbins, and Gene Autry.
TERRY LEWIS
In the Fall of 2009, Steve's brother Terry joined Coyotee Moon playing bass and bringing a new blend of harmonies to the group. Terry has also brought to us a talent for song writing that is seldom found. He resides with his wife Norma Jean in Hooper, Utah and he brings many years of musical talent to the group. Terry enjoys riding horses, watching western movies and spending time with his family.
Coyotee Moon's performances has taken them from around the campfire and brandings to some of the largest cattlemen's trade shows and conventions in the nation. Also played Branson, Missouri, Denver Market, Nashville?s Opryland Hotel and many cowboy poetry gatherings throughout the West.
The harmonies you'll hear from Coyotee Moon tightly blend together and on stage, they all have an amazing magic that creates a great rapport with their audience. Their passion for preserving the western way of life is reflected in the songs they play and sing.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Coyotee Moon has performed in Branson and Mountain View, Missouri, Lake Tahoe and Virginia City, Nevada, and numerous cowboy poetry gatherings including the Lewis Clark festival in Lewiston, Idaho and the Cedar Cowboy Gathering. They currently perform at the American West Heritage Center in Logan, Utah. Our most special moment would be having the opportunity to play in Branson, Missouri!
Your musical influences
We all grew up with Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, Rex Allen, and all the other great western singers of days gone by. The cowboys of the silver screen gave us heros to pattern after, and the serenity of the western way of life. Patsy Montana, one of the greatest female artists to ever hit the stage, left a legacy of living the cowboy way of life.
What equipment do you use?
Steve plays lead on a 6-string acoustic guitar and some times throughs in a little fiddle. Lisa plays rhythm on the 12 string and Terry plays bass.
