Artist Profile
Born in Nova Scotia and now based in Southern Ontario, Steve is a self-taught guitarist and a composer of heroic themes and intricate melodic structures. His early influences include the likes of Rush, Renaissance, Genesis and Mike Oldfield. Previous releases include Heroes Awaken (1991) and To See It Made Real (1995), both of which received radio airplay in Canada, the U.S. and Europe, as well as favorable reviews. More recently, Steve has been in the process of building a regional alliance of like-minded artists, in order to make live performance of each member's music possible.
