Widely recognised as one of the most powerful performers around, the term "stage presence" could well have been coined for Gibbons. Born in Birmingham, he first came to prominence as the leader of 'The Uglys', an uncompromising outfit at the forefront of the citys burgeoning 1960's music scene. By the early 1970's he had formed the five-piece 'Steve Gibbons Band' which enjoyed success in the singles charts during the next decade and has been perennially popular on the live circuit ever since. In the early 1980s, the Steve Gibbons Band became the first Western rock'n'roll act to be invited to tour in East Germany. These days Steve is as busy as ever with appearances as a solo artist, with SGB or touring with pianist Phil Bond, guitarist P.J Wright and Fairport Conventions Dave Pegg and Gerry Conway as The Dylan Project. In 2004 Steve was invited to join the legendary Scotty Moore on a live show filmed and recorded at Abbey Road to celebrate the 50th aniversary of Thats Alright Mama, Elvis Presleys first release.
