Singer Songwriter living in Tucson, AZ. Currently finishing a cd that will be released in April 2008 Singer Songwriter living in Tucson, AZ. Currently finishing a cd that will be released in July/August 2008 on gHoStToWn records. Previously released recordings include the album, ghosttown, that had a song, blackbird, included on several compilation cd's, including one by Cleveland's SinKlub label. That song received some airplay at 10 college stations throughout the Midwest USA. and Stephen did some live radio performances and interviews at some of these. After putting together a band, Burnt Sienna, and playing live for several years, including opening up for Blue Rodeo, John Wesley Harding, Over the Rhine and Paul Kelly;
While working on this cd, Stephen was lucky enough to meet and hire the talents of the soon to be indie darling band, Calexico, whose drummer John Convertino brought bandmate Joey Burns as a welcome surprise to Stephen and they recorded basic tracks for 5 or 6 songs, including probably the most radio friendly track, Brand New Man, which was nailed by the Calexico guys on the second take. Stephen really is fond of this session as he felt it was just a magical evening in an old converted garage studio called Subspace.
For the past two years, Stephen has also put together an ensemble of local talented musicians to play on the cd and also perform at the annual Tucson Folk Festival. He continues to develop this group under the moniker, Treehouse Fire.
As of December, 2007, Stephen was finishing the cd final mixes and mastering and plans to release the cd in mid Summer 2008.
