MAP TO EVENT

EVENT WEBSITE

A band started by singer/songwriter Steve McQueen (real name), who has been bringing a tonic blend of power soul and arena rock style to rave reviews from audiences for the last few years.

The time is right for the Steve McQueen Band, because, when you combine fierce musicianship, spectacular showmanship and bulletproof songs, you have a band that can go the distance and truly stand out.

Steve is also a family man, he always finds time in his busy music life, to share the bands successes, with his wife Erin, and his son, Ethan and being a new dad, Steve’s hopes for his son are clear;

He’s looks forward to sharing all of his experiences with his son, & proudly watching him grow into a man of integrity, strength, creativity, virtue, love & understanding as to pass on to his own family someday.

The Steve McQueen band is based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, where they have been recording and building a fan base by becoming a tight, unstoppable, live act giving unforgettable performances.

The sound is a hybrid of classic rock influences with a modern approach, creating something new and improved taking today’s rock n’ roll to a whole new level. The songwriting is passionate and down to earth with at times, a working class sensibility to it. It has been described as hypnotically melodic, yet bravely diversified.

Recently they’ve opened up for Bret Michaels of Poison, Deep Purple, Lou Gramm & Foreigner and David Lee Roth!
