A Life-long Musician

Classical. Jazz. Nuevo Flamenco. Rock.

 Steve has played guitar most of his life.  He learned by ear and was soon gleaning riffs off his favorite albums.  After the formation and breakup of many bands the call of the Classical Guitar became the singular focus in his search to be a better musician.

Upon graduating with a degree in Classical Guitar performance from Lewis & Clark College, he returned to his musical roots creating compositions blending  Classical, Rock, Jazz, and World music ranging from introspective contemplative solo guitar to epic orchestral tapestries and bombastic genre bending Progressive Rock instrumentation. 

He has appeared on stage with Jennifer Batten (Michael Jackson,  Jeff Beck), Martha Davis (The Motels), Tommy Tutone, Storm Large, Blake Sakamoto (Dan Reed Network), has supported Chien Tan (Oregon Symphony) featured on NPR radio,  and has recorded with John Payne (ASIA).

Steve continues to perform solo Classic Rock/Jazz/Nuevo Flamenco/Classical styles on the concert stage and events of all kinds.
