Bio
.... ...........Steve Wolf , bassist, has been a fixture on the Mid Atlantic music scene since the late 60s. During that time he has performed at major festivals and venues throughout the United States and Europe with such D.C. area notables as Danny Gatton, Tom Principato, The Nighthawks, Catfish Hodge, Big Joe Maher, Deanna Bogart, Linwood Taylor, Ron Holloway, Cathy Ponton-King, JesseYawn, and a diverse group of national artists ranging from Chuck Berry, The Coasters and Bo Diddly to Doctor John, Danny Gatton, Brian Auger, The Marvelletts and Springsteen sax man Clarence Clemons. His well-respected work in the blues arena has led him to back Chicago blues legends Sunnyland Slim, Pine Top Perkins, Bob Margolin, Charlie Musselwhite, Luther "Guitar Junior" Johnson, Jimmy Thackery and many others. Steve has also garnered an impressive list of recording credits as both a performer and producer. He played on and produced the legendary recording “Danny Gatton – Redneck Jazz Explosion” (Live At The Cellar Door). He is on at least a half dozen recordings and compilations with guitarist extraordinaire, Tom Principato. Wolf produced Principato’s “Live In Europe 1988” CD release. He also lent his playing and song writing skills to two Deanna Bogart Recordings. Recently Steve has enjoyed recording tracks for a number of children’s music projects with folk artists Cathy Fink, Marcy Marxer and Sue Trainor, as well as tracks for Tom Principato's new CD "Part Of Me." Look also for a duo recording release for sometime in late 2011. For the last 20 years Steve has been leading the award winning jazz and swing group Swing Speak. Their first CD "Well Spoken" won the Washington Area Music Association Award for Best Traditional Jazz Recording. Their second recording "Live In The Alley" was recorded in front of a live audience at the legendary Blues Alley nightclub. You can find both at Amazon.com.
