STEVE BROSKY
stevebrosky.com
When a young man growing up in the inner city of Allentown in the late '60s finds his life shift from happiness, personal conflicts, life of substance, and finding salvation, it's the moment when life creates the lyrics to the music that saves your life.

Through the ups and downs of personal relationships and internal battles, Steve learned that true fulfillment comes from sharing his gift with others. He discovered that sometimes it's not just about saving your own life - it's about saving others through the power of song.

Steve grew up in the shadows of the industrial smokestacks in the working-class city of Allentown, Pa. After his misspent youth, he picked up his guitar and embarked on his rock n' roll dreams, birthing Steve's musical style and the Steve Brosky Band. Steve Brosky n' the Buix, and finally Steve Brosky and the BBC. He started to work at area clubs and sit in with other musicians. 

Each of his recordings improves on the mix that runs through all his works. Street characters, hipster jive and swagger, love songs, cool Cadillacs, reminiscences, and social commentary are portrayed with what Brosky calls his combination of R&B and garage band music.

You can find influences from blues, folk, Americana, and world music; each song's mood depends on the story Brosky wants to tell. His singing is unique and relaxed but still a bit edgy. It is conversational as if he is talking to you about something, but he might as well sing about it since he happens to be holding a guitar. Steve’s recordings vary from acoustic guitar to a full band with a horn section.
