I, Steve Pardo, play saxophone (and other instruments, too) in bands led my myself or led by others. I live in Boston with my wife Amy and work for Harmonix Music Systems (maker of the Rock Band video games) as a composer/sound designer. I have a band with my sister-in-law, Lindley Cameron, and we released our first album, Fairytale Thankyou, last year and are working on our second. I play saxophone in Honeymoon to Earth, and woodwinds/guitar in the folk group Hello Ghost.
In the past I've played with the Amy Pardo Quartet, the Raffa and Rainer Band, Jesse Jackson, the Stefanie Smith Band, the South Nine Ensemble, and Tazer Room. I received my bachelors in Studio Music and Jazz and my masters in Studio Jazz Writing at the University of Miami.
My friend's myspace pages showcase my playing here and there. Right now you're listening to my rock stuff with Lindley.
Thank you for your friendship!Enjoy our video "All That Jazz" from Chicago musical!All the best for you your frind from Greece Alexander Paparizos guitarist-band leader
Just passing by showing some love, to wonderful people such as you who write such nice comments and encouragement which fuel me. I look forward to seeing you and all who have supported me at a live performance one day soon.
Times are hard for many but let us all embrace hope and each other for the "CHANGE" that is at our door steps. I wish the best during this Historical and Great Year of 2009 to you and yours always.
