The Liverpool native penned the single "Hail Caledonia" as a tribute to Scotland, a land which holds special memories for him.
It was in Scotland that his natural gift for song-writing began to manifest.
This ancient land steeped in a music legacy all its own provided the needed inspiration; both visual and spiritual.
It was here that Steve taught himself to play guitar and subsequently write his own music and lyrics.
