Drummer, Steve Holley, has provided some of the most solid and creative beats for Paul McCartney, Elton John, Joe Cocker, and Ian Hunter over the years. At the age of 16, Steve found himself touring the UK with the group Horse, and then the pioneering groups Amity, and G.T. Moore and the Reggae Guitars. The formation of his own group Vapour Trails, led to a three year run with Kiki Dee after they became her backing band. From there he was invited by Elton John to play on the "A Single Man" album. Elton asked Steve to join his band to promote the album, but an "offer he couldn't refuse" came from Paul McCartney himself. Steve became the drummer for Wings (on the classic "Back To The Egg" LP); touring and recording with the band until their breakup in 1981. Since then Steve has performed and recorded with a veritable "who's who" of music; Joe Cocker, Julian Lennon, Dar Williams, Ian Hunter, Chuck Berry, Martin Briley, Jules Shear, Popa Chubby, Seiko Matsuda, Denny Laine, Phoebe Snow, Gary Brooker, Ian McDonald, G.E. Smith, Warren Haynes, Tommy Shaw, Joe Louis Walker, Junior Brown, Jon Paris, Sean Fleming, and many others. Steve was the drummer at the White House benefit performance for the Special Olympics in 2001 providing the beat for Stevie Wonder and Wyclef Jean, Sheryl Crow, Jon Bon Jovi, Macy Gray, B.B. King & John Popper and Darlene Love. He also had the pleasure of doing the same at the John Lennon Tribute at Radio City Music Hall performing with Dave Stewart, Marc Anthony, Billy Preston, Sean Lennon, Kevin Spacey and Nelly Furtado. In 2003 he released his first solo album 'The Reluctant Dog.' To Order Reluctant Dog - Click Here
