About Me

YOU CAN ADD ANY OF MY SONGS TO YOUR PROFILE IF YOU WISH!!!!So I buckled and joined the MySpace world. I have a new album coming out in August so I figured I had to do it.Been playing guitar and writing music for 20 years. I am a Christian Artist and use music to glorify God, plain and simple. My life is a testimony to what God can do with anyone who is willing. I am a recovering drug addict and alcoholic and my passion for life comes from being at the bottom. In 2005 I wrote a book "Into The Mirror" that outlines my life and my struggles. That can be read at www.stevesporre.blogspot.com.If you would like to read my blog it can be found at www.jubalingen.blogspot.com. I am currently getting ready for the release of my new solo worship CD "I'm Ready". When I am not writing or playing too many video games (some things never change) I am a worship leader at a church in Hillsboro Oregon. MY CD WAS JUST REVIEWED..................... THIS REVIEW FROM SUITE 101's Jesse Cole..... Portland's Steve Sporre offers up his debut indie album, "I'm Ready," a mix of upbeat pop-rock and soulful acoustic worship.A singer/songwriter and worshipper for twenty years, Sporre has a love for the word, written or spoken, and it shows on this collection of eleven original songs. “I’m Ready” blends up-tempo gentle rockers (the buzzy title track, an expression of devotion and commitment, and the guitar-driven “Just What I Needed”) and slow-burning acoustic worship tracks (the stark arrangements of “Savior” highlighting Sporre’s emotive delivery). Among the latter, “Let Glory Unfold” is a standout, giving Sporre’s passion for words a chance to shine. Its lyrics mix his own devotion with the deep beauty of the Song of Solomon, a very effective track.Other highlights include the moving alt-rocker, “Enter Me,” a fervent plea for the Lord’s presence. The dramatic “Three in One” contains some old-school rock changes that sizzle brightly as the song builds to a passionate crescendo of worship. “I’m Ready” will serve nicely as your own devotional tool, available on Steve Sporre’s website.
