Decades of playing in New York City bands have seasoned Steven Bakur’s songs with an arresting mix of polish and grit. The Brooklyn native started performing locally in high school with a band called Sole Survivor. The band included Mark Bell (Marky Ramone of The Ramones) on drums, Kenny Aaranson (Joan Jett, Rolling Stone’s Bassist of the Year 1988), and Bakur on guitar and vocals. Steven went on to play in a number of projects including collaborations with Freddie Katz (Steven Van Zandt, Nicole Atkins) and Patti Rothberg (Between the 1 and the 9).
