Steve is a talented Piano player and works a lot as a tribute to Jerry Lee Lewis, he performs on his own and is also featured on The Everly Brothers & Friends Tribute Show. A lot of people do not realise Steve also lost his sight many years ago and audiences are amazed as to how he can put on a fabulous show without the use of sight, he certainly is a inspiration to music.
