This All Leads to You

About Me

Steph Modder is a native mid-westerner making her way into the DC music scene. She got her musical start in Minneapolis in coffeehouses and clubs, playing violin/BGV's other radom instruments with a band called the Nina the Pinta and the Santa Maria (now Greycoats) as well as owning the stage for solo performances. The move to DC has allotted a few random assortments of bandmates mixed also with solo acoustic gigs around the DC/ Northern Virgina area. With an ecclectic musical background, her sound with her honest lyrics and enchanting melodies find a place of their own on the musical table.Steph is in the final stages of her first full length recording with producer Michael Pritzl (The Violet Burning, The Gravity Show).
