Picking up a guitar at the peak of alternative rock in 1996, Steven taught himself to play the guitar, and is ever learning process. After several attempts to form a band, he continued on his own, writing a few dozen songs, and new material continually floats to the surface. Originally from Winnipeg, transplanted to Hamilton, and finally Toronto, his songs represent the inner longings of youth, the pangs of unrequited love, ambition, and hope.
