Steve Conte is one busy musician; guitarist, singer, songwriter & producer – both on tour and in studios around the world. His most recent album, The Concrete Jangle is an “Electrifying Power-Pop Gem”, with 1/2 of the songs co-written by Andy Partridge of XTC. The 10 song album, released on Little Steven Van Zandt‘s Wicked Cool Records label was recorded at Van Zandt’s studio in NYC with Conte on vocals, guitars, keyboards, percussion (+ arrangement/production), drummers Prairie Prince (XTC, The Tubes), Thommy Price (Billy Idol, Joan Jett), backing vocalists Ian Hunter, Marshall Crenshaw, Michael Imperioli, Glen Matlock and many others who helped to shape Conte’s vision; a Brit Pop/Motown/‘60s/Post-Punk ‘80s sounding record – with trashy NYC guitars, into a reality.
Says Steve: “I wanted to combine my favorite aspects of The Beatles, Kinks & Who with those of The Replacements, Pretenders & XTC. But I’m more like a soul-singer/guitar-slinger in tight pants, scarves & eyeliner.” Music has always been most important to Conte; the singing, the playing, the writing/arranging & the producing. He just happens to look pretty rock ’n’ roll while doing it all.
Four singles from the album have resonated with listeners across the globe, getting heavy airplay on the syndicated Underground Garage Radio Program & Coolest Songs In The World channel on Sirius/XM Radio. Conte quite literally has fans all over the world. Since the album’s release Steve has found himself a genuine rock ’n’ roll band in NYC; drummer Rob Youngberg (Lotion) & bassist Ben Toro (The Everyothers) who push Conte’s music to that high energy live-level. The band recently sold out The Bowery Electric in NYC – hot on the heels of winning the Best Music Video award at the Golden Door International Film Festival for Conte’s song, “We Like It”.
