Steve, master drummer, composer, educator, has been drumming for over twenty-five years. He has studied and performed in Africa and the United States. Steve is an expert in Ghanaian drumming, African and Caribbean hand drumming technique, drum improvisation, percussion theory and traditional instrument making. He's highly accomplished on a wide range of many ethnic instruments including congas, djembe, balafon, shekere, and talking drums. When Steve plays the drum speaks, either literally through a proverb played in drum language, or metaphorically through improvised phrases from the heart.
