In 2006, Steve Baskin released his debut album I Sometimes Think, finally spreading his wings and getting out on his own. Steve played every instrument on the album from guitars to drums to keyboards to mandolin and everything in between.


Steve's shiny vocal melodies and grown up, accessible power pop has earned him invites to play at the Atlantis Music Festival and some of the more prestigious clubs in the South. One of his tracks (How I Feel) appeared on Paste Magazine’s compilation CD.


To support the record, Steve put together a top-end live band. The band includes Alex Slinin (who has engineering credits with Dr. Dre and Eminem) on lead guitar; Joe Randolph on bass; Brian Hudson (Memory Dean) on drums and percussion; and long time collaborator Richard “Zoot” Blasingame on keyboards, accordian, bari sax and backing vocals.


Steve took the band into the studio last year to record the follow up to I Sometimes Think. Naked is done and will be available May 2009.


A Georgia native, Steve Baskin began his musical career swinging his Les Paul Deluxe around fronting a 10-piece R&B band called Hugo A Gogo who played with Sam & Dave, The Shirelles, Carla Thomas, Mary Wells and Percy Sledge. The band even opened for The Beach Boys on their 25th anniversary tour.


More recently, Steve worked with Cindy Wilson (of B-52's fame) as the guitarists and vocalist on her first solo project. The Cindy Wilson Band played major clubs, festivals and television - including a national broadcast of Live From Music Midtown on Turner South. As a guitarist in The Cindy Wilson Band he shared the stage with Don McLean, Mike Mills, Edwin McCain and received the thrill of a lifetime performing onstage with June Carter Cash playing "May The Circle Be Unbroken".
