|
Born in Madison WI August 27, 1950. Steven started playing piano at age 6, took
classical piano lessons for 8 years, during which time played trombone with his
junior high, and high school bands gaining musical knowledge which carries
through to present day. Steven’s keyboard technique is rare, from beautiful
classical melodies to raunchy honky tonk piano, showing musical abilities that
can only be acquired through years of playing. After high school, Steven
enrolled at the University of Wisconsin, where he majored in the Arts. He played
through the summer while earning his degree.
In 1970 Steven joined a local group, called “STONE HINGE” which gained a great
deal of popularity, they played extensively through out the mid-west, and as far
south as Florida. He spent almost 8 years on the road paying dues!
Steven moved to Venice, Florida in 1978, and worked in the aluminum industry
with his brother David, building pool cages in Sarasota, and Charlotte counties.
In 1992 Steven joined “BANDANA”, and since then has played hundreds of gigs all
over the state, from Miami to Jacksonville and back again Steven is truly an
asset to the band.
