Steve grew up in rural Maryland near Baltimore, where he immersed himself in the sounds of early Rock, Folk, and Rythm & Blues music. The oldest of five boys, all of whom play instruments and write songs, he spent a lifetime gathering the influences that shade the music and songs he writes today.

In his early years Steve performed with many east coast bands, including bands formed with his brothers and fellow songwriters, and it was here that he began to blend the elements of Folk, Blues, and Americana into memorable songs and stories.

As an active member in the folk communities of Philadelphia and southern New Jersey, he often opened shows for touring national acts, including Patty Griffin, Gordon Bok, Brooks Williams and many others. His songs have finalled or won awards in several national contests and festivals, and you can often hear Steve's songs being played on folk radio stations throughout the country and overseas. Steve now makes his home in the mountains of north central Pennsylvania.
