Guest Musician:
Steph began playing the violin and piano aged 4; by 12, he had completed all of ABRSM’s 8 grades on both instruments and began developing himself in areas not covered by the syllabus. As a self-taught guitarist, this new instrument opened up a new palate of genres (rock, jazz, pop and more) which he incorporated into his violin and piano playing alongside Middle Eastern and Oriental influences from his family heritage.
For the past few years he has also been front man of London-based rock trio Immortal Machinery who regularly perform up and down the UK as well as in Scandinavia and Europe.
