Recently, Steve played on a bunch of recordings by the fabulous Sprinkle Genies. Check 'em out! Steve is now producing several songs for their next album, and seems to be evolving into a sometimes 6th member of the band.
Steve also plays piano on songs at the myspace page of: Tom Warnick and the World's Fair, a great band. (Tom is the guitarist on "Bumbling Along.") Steve was a longtime member of the magical, fondly remembered Dan Emery Mystery Band.
For a recent stretch, Steve played piano for The Teenage Prayers. And the offshoot gospel oriented offshoot of the Prayers and Steve Wynn, Hazel Motes. Steve toured Europe extensively with Steve Wynn in the olden days.
Steve and Malcolm Rollick improv'd together rather magically at one of her shows, and the song, "Don't Stop Reading Me the News" is on her myspace page if you click on her name, 30 words ago.
Steve does not know why one of his songs has magically stopped working on myspace. Time to put something new there, maybe.

Sounds Like

I have a fetish for discarded sound technologies and discarded conceptions of rhythm. I do my best to be good to people, including myself. Sometimes I succeed, sometimes I fail. I have not yet made friends with Time. I tend to spread myself thin.
It is rumored that I am the subject of the Moldy Peaches' song "Jorge Regula." I played keyboards on the recording of the song.
I started an online community for record cutting deviants called
The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls. It has developed a life of its own and mostly I act as the janitor.
Right now I am working with a bunch of people in my neighborhood & we are fighting against a corrupt skyscraper/arena project. http://www.dddb.net
I am hungry.
If you want to add me, write me a note, or I may assume you are spam. I don't like spam, but I do like real people.

I'm happy to announce that my new album "Songs From The Films Of David Lynch" is out now.
"Truly unsettling and perplexingly brilliant... testament to both the quality of Lynch’s soundtracks and Truax’s talents" - The Skinny
"Truax is paying homage to a kindred spirit with this album. It's the best kind of tribute – affectionate and respectful, but with its own quirks and imaginative leaps and its own distinct identity." -The Scotsman
