About Me


When describing STEVE WARREN's career, one must use the term: "VARIED." He has been singing, literally, as long as he has been talking!
At the ripe old age of 3 years old, he sang to 10,000 people in a large municipal auditorium in his hometown of Houston Texas.
STEVE WARREN, "The Voice," has sung and performed with the greats in both gospel and secular music.
In his hometown of Houston Texas, Steve became friends and performed with country music great Larry Gatlin. Their friendship continues to this day.
Moving to Nashville in 1982, he began singing with the legends of gospel music, Jake Hess, Hovie Lister, J.D.Sumner & James Blackwood in the group "The Masters 5." On the majority of the 8 albums he performed on and produced for the Masters, his "one man band" is heard, as he played all the instruments on those recordings.
When all of the Masters went their separate ways, J.D. Sumner & Steve reformed "The Stamps Quartet," the group that sang back-up for the late Elvis Presley. He then traveled world-wide with The Stamps, doing gospel concerts as well as "Elvis Tribute" shows, for which he was the featured vocalist.
Leaving the Stamps in 1993, Steve joined forces with his lifelong friend, Cecil Blackwood and The Blackwood Brothers. This would not be the last time for Warren to join this world famous group.
In December of 1994, he then joined "The Wayne Newton Show," as pianist, leader of Newton's back-up vocal group, and featured soloist on all of his shows. Steve also appeared in the Warner Brothers motion picture "Vegas Vacation" in 1996.
In September of 1997, Steve again joined The Blackwood Brothers, remaining in that position until the death of Cecil Blackwood in November of 2000.
His award nominations and inductions have been varied as well. STEVE WARREN is the only performer in the large entertainment community of Pigeon Forge Tennessee to be nominated for 9 Grammy awards in 3 categories: Solo Artist, Group Member, and record producer. He has been inducted into the Gospel Music Association Hall of Fame in 3 groups.
In every position Warren has performed, he was musical/vocal arranger and record producer, as well.
Steve has performed in The Astrodome in Houston; Constitution Hall in Washington D.C.; Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City; Graceland and Elvis' "Memphis" Restaurant in Memphis; The Sands, The Desert Inn, MGM Grand, Luxor Hotels in Las Vegas; The Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC, to name just a few of the notable venues.
You've seen him numerous time on television on Nashville Now, Dove Awards Telecast, Grand Ole Opry, TNN/Music City News Awards, Another Evening with The Statler Brothers, America Comes to Graceland, Gospel Country & QVC Shopping network.
With the release of his newest 3 recording projects, STEVE WARREN will have performed on an astounding 70 albums, having been released on long play vinyl, 8 tracks, cassettes & CD's, as well as numerous videos.
We are currently in negotiation for the publishing of his autobiography.
