Steve Jabas

Steve is a multi-talented guitarist, producer, composer, arranger, and songwriter
based in New York City.
Music was something that I had an ear for even as a child growing up in suburban Minneapolis/St. Paul Minnesota: listening to the radio, finding a melody or rhythm particularly interesting when watching a movie or a television show, and of course the sounds created when banging on a makeshift drum set made of pots and pans! As a teenager, I began playing guitar and found myself instantly attached to the instrument with all the endless possibilities of sounds, harmonies and rhythms that were possible from it.
Currently I reside in New York City playing for a variety of groups, including The Stingers, Hot Peas 'N Butter, Josh Charles, Kirsten Thien, Allison Scola, Brother Joscephus, Vaya! and the improvised comedy-musical Baby Wants Candy. In addition to performances, I am also an composer and arranger, writing for a variety of performers and groups, including scores for the short film "A Family Portrait" and the independent feature film "Shadow Boxer." I am also a producer, recently producing an EP with singer/songwriter Josh Charles which is currently available on iTunes.
If you are interested in an arrangement, recording project, in need of a talented and fun guitarist, or if you just want to say "hello" please send me a message through myspace.

If you are you a performer and need a song to be arranged and notated for a group of musicians, I can create an arrangement that fits your needs.
Arrangements for various sizes and instrumentation, from small groups to large groups, rhythm sections, horns, strings, etc. You will receive notated music for the instrumentation you request, printed and ready to play. Parts can be instantly sent to you through email to you as a printable pdf file via email (don't you just love technology!)
