Steve Sellers is a South Texas broadcaster who has done radio shows all over the USA.

Steve started in broadcasting at age 14, at his hometown radio station KAML in Kenedy,Texas when his guitar teacher invited him to be featured on a Saturday afternoon live music show. Within about a year, Steve had become the weekend announcer for the station.

That humble begining led Steve to radio gigs in San Antonio,Pittsburgh, Kansas City, San Diego and Los Angeles , along with appearances on stations in England, Ireland and Jamaica.

Musically, Steve performs as a solo acoustic act and with some fine musicians in the San Antonio,Texas area.

In 2006 Steve was named Radio Personality of the Year in San Antonio and also received the "Noble Man" award from the San Antonio Fatherhood Organization, for being an outstanding and inspirational father.

In 2007 Steve was nominated as "Air Personality of the Year" in the Classic Hits format in Radio and Records magazine.

Steven O. Sellers is now appearing more and more with his son, Steve Jr. - an up and coming teen age rock guitarist. The father/son team plays sets of crowd pleasing rock and blues, and even plays at school assemblies in South Texas, encouraging young students to express themselves through reading and music.

Love to play live in all sorts of venues. One of my favorites is Casbeers in San Antonio,Texas. Also The Cove in San Antonio, and especially Sam's Burger Joint, San Antonio,Texas!
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Lots of great and quirky musicians get to be heard all over the world! What could be better?
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
May I consult my attorney?
