Whether on stage or in the studio, Chicago native Steve Stewart embodies the three P’s of a master percussionist: Passion, Precision, and POCKET! From the first time he picked up a pair of sticks at the age of three, Steve has built a strong reputation for excellence and diversity which has earned the respect of some of the greatest names in the music industry in multiple genres.


His goal in every session is to secure the heartbeat of the song and transform it into a work of art! Steve’s ability to understand music beyond the instrument has caught the attention of such mainstream artists as ZZ Ward, Toni Braxton, Black Eyed Peas, Kanye West, Young Bleu, Macy Gray and a host of others. He has toured and recorded with a number of artists and producers who celebrate his natural ability to adapt to any artist’s style and deliver quality with consistency. Locking a groove, for Steve, is a God-given gift. While the drummer is the “engine” of the band, Steve realizes that all the parts are necessary to make the unit thrive. His strong work ethic and flexibility make him an essential and effective part of any unit!


In addition to being an accomplished musician, Steve is also a devoted husband and father who loves and supports his family wholeheartedly. As a mentor, he equips other percussionists to embrace the art of musicianship. While Steve is a natural performer, the groove lives in his heart!
