So the story goes like this.....
Once upon a time in W.14 people danced, sang.......then danced and sang somemore.
Formally of Copperplate in the mid 90's. Went on to form Steve Hanshaw and the Retrospectors. .
Copperplate of West London origin spent 3 years doing the suburb scene, recorded with Pat Collier of some fame with The Wonder Stuff and some names i am to embarrassed to mention. Plenty of lives shows and plenty of good times!!!The Retrospectors recorded with Julian Tardo (Insides) in Brighton, an album was written and recorded but never saw the light of day. Bleedin money! Until now.....it is available via Wippit.com.Had a good run with the mighty "The Dials" in Brighton before flighting back to london to play in "The Kingsize Slim". Once again lots of live shows, an LP recorded and many a Red Stripe sank!!
Been writing and recording The Kilburn Blues LP for a while and it is now available via "WIPPIT.COM". This has got to be my favourite batch of songs to date. Work is already in progress for another forth coming album so hope to put up a few samples very soon.

12 Tracks recorded and written here, there and everywhere.
Wippit's review.....
Steve Hanshaw is a West London born singer songwriter. With tunes like Another Man's Shoes, and Everything We Talk About this is a firm favourite of ours. Packed with influences like Chas and Dave, The Jam and The Style Council, and Quadrophenia, it's also a bluesy affair, with Hanshaw making no secret of his London leanings. Check out Steve's work with The Retrospectors too.
Onwards and upwards, gotta keep keepin on. Thanks for popping round, drop me a line, i dont bite regardless what the rumours say!!!. Keep checkin it out cos as you know it changes like the bleedin weather. HANSHAW
