About Me

Stephen Palmer played bass guitar in a rock band "Pneumonia in June" with some of his friends after highschool (Brett Sebastian and Raphael Bissessar presently the lead guitarist of "Waiting for Grace").....the band eventually fizzed out and Stephen hooked up with producer "Jehovah" AKA Colin Troy from "Slave to the Square Wave"....they spent time together in the studio looping Stephen's basslines and adding drumloops and keyboard washes...with alot of vocal coaching from Colin Troy and a vocal sample from Colin Troy's sister, bionic spaceboy released a cassette tape (remember b4 CD's?). It was played on a CFNY 102.1 the edge in 1995 (Dave Bookman appeared to be impressed with the track "orbit"). A very strange and weird late night interview on CIUT radio....Stephen hosts Indie Night at Sneaky Dees in 1996.......Stephen hooks up with another bass player Tara (hubba hubba)......some time passes.....some shows at the Elmocombo.......a show at the 360.....Stephen goes back to college in hope of securing a real job.....Stephen acquires a new career in social work, working with troubled youth, mental health and continues education at York University studying psychology and expressive art therapy.....more time passes as Stephen's family grows....and starts to play acoustically in seclusion.....2007 Stephen uploads the songs orbit, abduction, and saturn from the 1995 release for the fun of it....myspace layouts for Get this layout for your myspace page.
