Stephen B. Antonakos, aka Homeboy Steve, was born and raised on the island of Manhattan, New York City, U.S.A. As a child he pressed his ears against the window of the West End Cafe to hear Tiny Grimes and listened to Cousin Brucie on AM radio. He played tambourine in The Teacher's Dilemma ("Paint It Black", "Day Tripper").
Further musical ambitions were delayed until the needle dropped on the Allman Brothers' Eat a Peach side three, track one. After playing guitar for one month without knowing the proper tuning, progress was soon made.
After years of playing, jamming, busking, practicing and listening, his love for music remains intact. He'd love to hear from you.
