The song is everything. The attitude is not. Music is a game of survivors and Steve Sinnicks is nothing if not here to stay.If you live in Southern Ontario, there is a good chance that you have seen Steve Sinnicks on stage. Steve plays pubs, clubs, campuses and festivals almost 365 days a year. Lefty, labourside and not interested in who knows it, with the trio or solo, no two gigs are the same.Original songs and acoustic shows ... anywhere draft beer or solidarity can be sold.
