BACKSTORY
At an early age Steve developed a passion for 1950's Rock n Roll, Rythm and Blues and Rockabilly, whilst growing up in the South East of England to a soundtrack of 1970's and 1980's rock and pop music.
Throughout the Nineties and Noughties, many an evening was spent in the bars and clubs of the Bristol area playing pop and rock covers of the day, including Oasis, Blur, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, REM, and Radiohead. At this point, an interest in songwriting began with a catalogue of pop/rock songs developing slowly but surely, with the occasional showcase performance in the social clubs of Bristol.
The band ‘Steve Michael & the Artizans’ was created to showcase the expanding catalogue of Steve's original compositions culminating in the 2018 release of the “Momentos” album, recorded and produced by Quilombo Productions in Bordeaux, France.
Steve regularly performs Solo acoustic concerts playing a mixture of roots inspired covers and original compositions.
More recently, Steve has joined forces with Garry King Productions in an exciting venture of new releases which can be purchased and downloaded here.
