ActiveAbout
Steve Hill is a Canadian blues rock singer-songwriter and guitarist born in Trois-Rivières in 1974. He started playing guitar at age 12 and began performing on local stages at 16. At age 16, Steve was already playing the bar circuit, and turned pro two years later when he joined the Bob Harrisson Blues Band. He left after two years to pursue a solo career, with his first album released in 1997. His debut album led to Real Blues magazine proclaiming him 'the best young Blues guitarist on the North American scene today'. Hill is a guitarist, singer, drummer, harmonica player, songwriter and accomplished producer. He has explored everything from Rock, Country, Folk, and all kinds of music, while continuing to fuse it all with his first love, the Blues. Hill performs standing up while singing and playing guitar, his feet playing bass drum, snare drum, hi-hats and with a drum stick fused to the head of his guitar, any other percussion within reach. Leading Germany's Guitar Magazine proclaimed Steve as being 'the most spectacular one-man band on the planet'. Hill has won seven Maple Blues Awards in two years, as well as the Blues Album of the Year JUNO award in 2015. He has played concertos with Kent Nagano and the Montreal Symphonic Orchestra, and has shared the stage with Ray Charles, B.B. King and ZZ Top. He has performed over 2,500 concerts in many configurations, and celebrated his 25th year as a recording artist with the release of 'Dear Illusion' in 2022.
