Steve on Bass

About Me

I've been playing since the age of 12, although I sucked back then. Recorded 3 "solo" records in the 90's with my brother Michael singing lead on the first one and part of the second one.Lured out of retirement in the late 90's, I played drums with Mad Cow. Then while producing their CD, I was asked to play bass with Missus Perkins. That lasted until 2001, when the band broke up and Three Bullet Gate was formed. We went on to record the most excellent "Test" CD and play many great live shows in the Detroit area.After Three Bullet Gate disbanded, Mark Houle and I went on to form Model Citizen, with Dave and Keith.I am now the bassist for one of the most kick-ass rock party bands in Detroit, Shakedown. We're setting the Motor City on fire, y'all! (In a good way, of course!) Guitar MySpace Layouts - Bass Guitar MySpace Layouts Guitar MySpace Layouts
