Steve Stapley made his first professional recording at Abbey Road in 1968. A few years later, Steve and his then music partner, Richard Markstein, were signed as a duo by DJM records where they remained for several years, recording an album, a series of singles and touring the UK. Pete Brown, poet and author of many of Cream's classic hits, joined them on percussion and Scrabble.

Moving to LA, where he married and fronted a couple of rock bands, Steve achieved success writing songs for movies and writing English lyrics for French legend Johnny Halladay's gold album - En VQ and for the French No.1 single - Casualty of Love.

After five years in California, Steve and his wife returned to England where he started writing jingles and singing on TV commercials.

After the sudden loss of his first wife, Steve met American singer, Lynda Hayes. They are married with two sons and live in Northamptonshire.

Steve, as well as writing, performing and producing, co-directs multimedia video production company - Paydirt Productions Ltd.
