From Melbourne, Australia, Steve McLeod - singer, songwriter, guitarist,
got hooked to music at 4 years old after seeing a Prince video. He began
studying classic piano. By his early teens his love and understanding of
music had grown, wanting to learn more instruments and styles. The guitar
became his main focus, then the drums, bass and songwriting.
After high-school, Steve started experimenting with original compositions.
His love for jazz found him in Los Angeles at Richie Kotzen's recording
studio, recording a solo jazz-instrumental album.Whilst working on this
material, Steve was working on productions and songwriting for various
Australian bands and singers. One demo even caught the eye of EMI's Executive
Director, who encouraged Steve to take a more rock, vocal direction - closer
to his initial experimenting.
In 2006/07 Steve moved to Los Angeles where he attended the Musician's
Institute, furthering his musical landscape. During this time studying
and working on his album, Steve wrote and produced music for Emmy Award
winning TV in the U.S.
