Steve Marion is sort of an enigma in this scene of ours. He’s been making great music for years now and has even played guitar on tracks for legends such as Paul Simon-yet a lot of people still don’t know anything about the guy. 

I remember my first time seeing Delicate Steve and almost being as frazzled as I was excited. An indie-rock band with no vocalist? No way. It was a breath of fresh air. But Steve will be the first to let you know he is no instrumentalist- Steve is a producer, and a great one at that. His latest album, “This Is Steve”, is only more of a testament to that. While reverting back to his earlier, more spontaneous production methods (creating an entire album in his bedroom over 10 days), Steve simultaneously fuses all the brilliant new techniques he’s gathered over the years, delivering an album that is energetic, youthful, inspired and refined all at once. Check out our artist profile on Steve below and be sure to catch him at the Middle East tonight:
