Steve’s musical odyssey commenced at the tender age of 3, when he surprised his parents by picking out nursery rhymes on a toy piano. By age 4, he had begun piano lessons and at 8, he added guitar to his repertoire. Throughout his school years, Steve honed his musical skills, mastering various instruments in school bands and extracurricular groups.
Steve’s exceptional talents led him to Berklee College of Music, where he earned a 2-year certificate in Music Composition. He then spent 15 years in the LA music scene, garnering recording credits with music legends Paul and Linda McCartney and Andy Qunta of Icehouse. He toured nationally as a sideman with Swiss metal band Krokus and performed with Krokus at the iconic 1986 Texxas Jam at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, alongside rock legends Bachman-Turner Overdrive, Loverboy, Dio, and Van Halen, in front of a roaring crowd of 72,000 people!
Today, you can catch Steve rocking solo shows across Colorado and Wyoming, where he never fails to wow audiences with his unmatched musical talent. He also co-hosts the Island Grill Jazz Jam and plays with a variety of other groups including the Custom Shop Band, Tina Marx & The Millionaires, Kahuna Beach Party and others.
