After reaching top 20 on Metal Contraband Radio charts in the USA - with his explosive single “We Go To War,” guitarist/producer/mixer Steve Gordon MIA is back with his most uncompromising track yet. His new single “Broken” features the unmistakable voice of Ray West (Spread Eagle) and delivers a Hard rock/Metal assault rooted in obsession, addiction, and the chaos that follows when desire spins out of control.
Steve Gordon MIA – BROKEN (feat. Ray West): Below
The single continues Gordon’s creative partnership with Ray West, best known as the frontman of NYC hard rockers Spread Eagle. Together, they deliver another explosive performance that blends modern heavy metal intensity with the raw, emotional edge of classic hard rock.
“BROKEN is heavy, aggressive, raw, relentless, ferocious, but also personal. Ray brought it to life in a way that’s both haunting and powerful.”
Because of his consistent ability to rescue and transform songs just days or hours before a release, Steve Gordon was often referred to as the “SECRET WEAPON”—the guitarist who could elevate a track to Top 40 Billboard chart success with his parts and additions. His behind-the-scenes work helped many artists achieve recognition that pushed them to icon status.
As Gordon was fully aware in his role as a ghost guitarist for some of rock and pop’s most iconic artists, he knew his name would not appear in the liner notes. However, his contributions were still formally recognized after release through lifetime royalties paid by AIE for all his ghosting sessions, cementing his status as an essential but often unseen contributor to many top charting records still played worldwide on radio every day worldwide.
In addition to his recording and session work, Gordon has placed about 27 songs in major films and soundtracks, including “The Little Things” starring Denzel Washington, “80 For Brady” starring Jane Fonda, Sally Field, Rita Moreno, Lily Tomlin, and NFL legend Tom Brady, and “Mafia Mama” starring Toni Collette and Monica Bellucci. His work also extends to Disney movies & soundtracks, as well as placements across Netflix, HBO, and Paramount, showcasing his versatility and wide-reaching impact.
With “We Go To War” still gaining traction on rock and metal radio stations across the country, “BROKEN” builds on that momentum. Backed once again by Munsey Ricci (Skateboard Marketing Ltd.) on radio promotion, ) and Michael Brandvold Marketing handling social media, press and digital strategy, Gordon continues to position his music for maximum impact in both the commercial and underground rock scenes.
Expect “BROKEN” to be a defining statement in Steve Gordon MIA’s evolving story—raw, relentless, ferocious, and unafraid to push boundaries.
