Born
in Washington, D.C. Steve began playing the guitar when he was 13. By high
school he was performing his own compositions. Over the years Steve has refined a
contemporary style and sound that is very much in demand.
He's hopes to bring his music to larger audiences as often as he can, but not necessarily
as often as he would like! In addition to composing and performing, he is also Producer
for many other artists' CD's. That, along with composing and all of his other work, keeps
him pretty busy! |
Sunspot Records is guitarist/composer
Steve Veale's label and proudly presents his music.
Steve's music has been heard on smooth jazz format radio stations from coast-to-coast and
conveys the beauty of his home state of Florida. It's an enticing blend of worldbeat and
smooth jazz styles.
His CD's includes smooth cover ... like a funky version of War's "Low Rider,"
James Ingram's "One Hundred Ways," and Thad Jones' "A Child is
Born." Serious fans of smooth jazz guitar will want to add this one to their
collection right away.
