Steve Skyler
"Guilty Pleasure", an original melodic rock project has an available German release from Target Records but can be bought locally at cdbaby.com/cd/guiltypleasure. The band site is www.guiltypleasureband.com.
My cover band "The Groove" can be found at: www.thegrooveonline.net.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I'm having more fun than ever in life, love, and music...I thank God. I COULD plug the websites again but that'd be cheesy...thegrooveonline.net.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
All over the place. We'll be somewhere around you I'm sure.
Your musical influences
Beatles, Stones, Cheap Trick, anything with rock and roll energy to drive, exercise, or dance to (among other things).
What equipment do you use?
I go where the deals are.
Anything else?
A lot of guys complain they didn't get to make the music they wanted to make (Leif Garrett, David Cassidy, et al). After a couple years, no one buys them, the record company dumps them, then they claim they are "walking away" from the biz. This is the script for every "Behind the Music" ever written, but let me continue...
Then, they "go underground", finally getting to make the music "they" want. Except it's the same crap they made before without the solid songwriting supplied by their old partners.
