Steve is a young, professional, hard working and reliable musician who has become addicted to performing and recording behind his kit. He enjoys all aspects of drums and percussion and would like nothing more than to pursue his passion as a career. Almost all styles of drumming appeal to him in various ways and he is a proficient and confident player in most styles. Steve has also been playing hand percussion almost as long and can play most hand drums in any musical situation to a high standard. He is currently and always will be working hard toward becoming the best musician he can. Steve also provides comprehensive drum-kit and percussive instrument lessons on a one-one or group basis to students of all abilities.
