Steele

From an early age, Steele realized that his powerful and sensual voice was no accident, and with determination, he embarked on the journey to become Steele: singer, songwriter, producer.

Like most musicians from Jamaica , Steele grew up singing in the church, but when at 14 he left his hometown of Lucea, to attend the Herbert Morrison High School in Montego Bay (where he had his first taste of thunderous applause), he brought with him a natural affinity for the drums, and a decision to make a career in music.

He then moved to Jamaica’s tourist destination of Montego Bay, where he juggled being lead singer of “The Mystic Force”- a band with veteran reggae artist Benji Myers, as well as debuting as a solo cabaret artist, and a member of the old hits trio “Cotton Candy”.

Moving to Jamaica’s capital city proved to be Steele’s window of opportunity. It was in Kingston that he met Tristan Palmer, one of reggae’s most significant artists, which led to Steele’s first recording, a cover of Stevie Wonder’s classic “Ribbon in the Sky”. In Jamaican terms, Steele had “bust out the gates!”, and the rest, as they say, is history .
