Hi there - thanks for dropping by.
The latest news is that I have been recording my new album, "You Found Me".
The 12 new songs were recorded over one weekend in March (2012) with Phil Jones (Drums), Paul Egan (Bass) and yours truly on piano and vocals. I have booked a couple more sessions for some guitar overdubs and finishing touches.
Phil, Paul and I had a great time recording under the excellent engineering of Ryan Gorringe at The Manor, Ferring, West Sussex. Phil and Paul are ex-students of mine and now work all over the world as session musicians and sound engineers - it was GREAT catching up with them and reliving some of the numerous funny moments we had in our school days!
You Found Me should be released in June 2012 as a CD and as a download album from Itunes.
There will be a launch event, so hopefully I will see you there!

Hi Steve just want to take this opportunity to wish you Miriam and the kids a very happy 2011. It will have to go some to top 2010 for you but with Gods grace this year will be even better than last year. Look forward to seeing you both again in the not to distant future. Love to you all from both of us.
Hey Dad
How amazing to read your comments. I don't often hear you talk like this - opening up your soul - and what a soul you have - full of love and light. You are a wonderful man and I am so proud to call you Dad. Thanks for taking the time to listen again to these demos - I seriously need to get my act together and record the album - posh 'em up a bit. See you soon. Your son. x
IS THIS LOVE
One of my favourites . Everybody at sometime in their lives asks this question. We are all searching for love so when it comes along hold on to it.
OPEN DOORS
Great song that really touched me because I have been with the person I love for over 50 yearsand she has been an inspiration in my life.
SLOW IT DOWN
Really enjoyed this one. I have often watched people walking in the street and wondered what they were thinking and what their lives were like.There is so much pressure in life today and it would be good for people to hear this song and maybe they would take note and live in harmony.
Love this one great tuneand lyrics and expresses your feelings.
Thanks for your really lovely message and for visiting the website - so glad you like the song - see you at the launch Party sometime soon I really hope! Gotta get cracking on this CD. Thanks for being great friends and for sharing some lovely times with us recently - Miriam continues to inspire me in so many ways. I am a very lucky man.
Wow!! What a beautiful song. Steve you have managed to put into words of a song (I've never known colours) what many of us would want to say to our special someones but haven't the heart & mind of a true poet. Thankyou for letting us share in your genius.
Our prayer is that your love for each other would continue to grow and forever draw out these diamonds of inspiration.
God bless you both & Amy, Ed and Becksie as well. PS: Great photo's too.
Hey Margs - GREAT to hear from you! Glad you like, "Before" - hope to get the album out in the New Year. Los of love to you, dear Margs.

I am really glad to see you have found the inspiration to compose again. You always could write a good ballad and this has not changed. Well done. RIP Dog Called Dave. Good luck in your new life with Miriam.

Excellent song absolutely love it. You are sounding and looking great reminds me abit of Billy Joel? Can't wait for the album now!!!! Have you ever cosidered working with the Orchards Middle School aswell they gave a cracking christmas concert and they have an amazing choir under mr Parkinson.

Thanks Martyn. GREAT to hear from you. Thanks for the comments - greatly appreciated and so glad that you like "Is this love?" It's the one I love best at the moment.
Hi Steve,
Hearing this absolutely beautiful song brought back many happy memories of your incredible creativity. Its great to see you continuing on with your amazing gifts. Put me down for a copy of your new album - I am already looking forward to hearing it...
LOVE really IS the inspiration!!!!
Thanks Dad! You can hear more in the "slow it down" drop down menu. "Is this love" demo is there - dodgy vocal, but a nice tune methinks. I always thought Neil Diamond would do it well!
Thanks Vicky - I'll put some more demos on soon.
Adam, would you like some chutney too?
;-)
I just want your pompadum :)
Great song, Steve, can't wait to hear the rest
Check out demo version of "slow it down" - hope you like!
