About Stephen
Stephen has been playing professionally for over 20 years. At the last count he has played over 600 gigs across the UK and Europe.
He cut his teeth playing to party-mad crowds, day in day out, whilst living in the French alps for several years, plus a couple of Scandinavian tours and a summer in Corfu. Since then, he has established himself as a popular entertainer in around the South East.
His extensive repertoire of crowd pleasing standards and modern hits, combined with his warm, lively and engaging style, make him a great choice for celebrations and parties.
He also fronts a highly successful events band (The Loops) but particularly loves the intimacy and flexibility of solo performances.
